## 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 gocreative-shopify-category-leads-api-b347b887
```

Example prompt: Pull me a list of Shopify stores in the beauty category — I need their contact info like emails and phone numbers so I can reach out for a wholesale partnership.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need broad vertical-level discovery of Shopify merchants without a specific keyword — ideal for building outreach lists, supplier databases, or market research by industry niche. Prefer this over keyword-based scrapers when the goal is to explore an entire category rather than search for a specific product or brand.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized category name returns empty results or 404
- Category string with typos may return no matches
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Sparse verticals may return very few or no merchants
- Malformed path parameter causes 400 bad request
