## 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-news-language-regions-list-api-fetcher-sh-4b1af4ae
```

Example prompt: What language and region combinations are available on the Google News fetcher API so I can pick the right locale before pulling headlines?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint first when building an integration with the Google News fetcher.sh API and you need to know which language-region combinations are valid before making headline or topic queries. It acts as a reference/discovery endpoint to avoid invalid locale errors downstream.

## Known failure modes

- Payment required (402) if no prepaid credits or x402 payment header provided
- Rate limiting or timeout if upstream Google News is unavailable
- Empty or partial list if the scraping layer fails to retrieve locale metadata

## How this service works

Google News (headlines) data and scraping API: Headlines by section (world, business, technology, ...), keyword search, topics, and article URL decoding. 12 REST endpoints from $0.005 per call — no account, no OAuth, no subscription. Pay with x402 (USDC on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad or Solana) or prepaid credits.

## Output

A list of supported language-region locale combinations (e.g. en-US, fr-FR, de-DE) that can be used as parameters in other Google News API endpoints to retrieve localized headlines and stories.
