## 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-v1-validateaddress-455b38d4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you validate this shipping address for me and tell me if it's real and deliverable: 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, Google-backed address validation with rich corrected output including geocoordinates and USPS metadata. Prefer this over simple regex or third-party validators when accuracy matters for shipping, billing, or compliance use cases. Ideal when you need both validation AND standardization in a single call.

## Known failure modes

- Address not found — returns low confidence verdict with empty corrected components
- Invalid country code — returns 400 error
- Ambiguous address with multiple matches — returns verdict indicating address is unconfirmed
- Missing required address lines — returns incomplete validation result
- Rate limit exceeded — returns 429 error
- Authentication failure — returns 403 error
