## 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 glassnode-total-gas-used-sum-74df5038
```

Example prompt: Pull the total gas used on Ethereum for the last 24 hours from Glassnode — give me the JSON data with daily resolution.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need on-chain gas usage aggregate data for Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, or Optimism networks at daily, weekly, or monthly resolution. Ideal for monitoring network congestion trends, fee market analysis, or building dashboards tracking gas consumption over time.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required asset symbol 'a' parameter returns validation error
- Unsupported network or interval enum value returns 400 bad request
- Insufficient payment or missing x402 payment header returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid format parameter returns error
- No data available for the requested time range returns empty array

## How this service works

Total Gas Used — The total amount of gas used across all transactions. Data by Glassnode.

## Output

Returns a time-series array where each entry contains a UNIX timestamp (t) and the total gas used (v) across all transactions in that interval, for the specified network and asset.
