## 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 google-maps-place-details-basic-via-auor-io-98bf4939
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the basic details for 'Tartine Bakery' in San Francisco — I need their address, phone number, and opening hours?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need only the core/essential fields about a place (address, hours, phone, website) and want a lower-cost call compared to the full details endpoint. Ideal for quick lookups where exhaustive place data is unnecessary. Use over the full details endpoint to save cost ($0.005 USDC) when only basic info is needed.

## Known failure modes

- Place not found — invalid or unrecognized place identifier returns empty or error response
- Ambiguous place name with no sufficient context may return wrong location
- Missing required query parameters returns 400 bad request
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns 429 or 402 error
