## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability ggwp-api-hub-instagram-stories-downloader-5c20a0c2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you download the current Instagram stories from the account '@natgeo' and give me the media URLs so I can save them before they expire?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to programmatically download or archive Instagram Stories content — especially time-sensitive media that expires within 24 hours. Prefer this over manual screen recording or browser-based tools when automating social media monitoring or content archiving pipelines. Pay-per-call pricing via x402 makes it suitable for low-frequency, on-demand use rather than bulk scraping.

## Known failure modes

- Instagram account is private — cannot access stories without following
- Story has already expired (older than 24 hours) — returns empty or error
- Invalid or nonexistent Instagram username — returns error
- Instagram rate-limiting or blocking the scraper — service may return failure
- Malformed input (missing username/URL) — returns validation error
