## 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-play-store-app-categories-list-4c771d4a
```

Example prompt: Can you get me the full list of Google Play Store app categories, including their category IDs and display names, so I can see what's available for filtering charts?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to enumerate all available Google Play Store app categories before querying category-specific charts or rankings. It is the reference lookup for valid category IDs accepted by sibling chart endpoints on x402.openwebninja.com. Prefer this over scraping Play Store HTML directly or guessing category slugs.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
- Network timeout if the upstream Play Store data source is unavailable
- Empty or partial category list if upstream data is temporarily incomplete
