## 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-web-search-api-jojapi-c59751e9
```

Example prompt: Search Google for 'open source LLM fine-tuning tutorials site:github.com' and return the top 10 results including any related keywords.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Google's web search index with support for advanced Google search operators (dorking), locale/language filtering, and related keyword discovery. Prefer it over generic search APIs when Google-specific ranking and operator syntax (site:, filetype:, intitle:, etc.) are important to your use case. It is particularly useful when agents need to retrieve real-world, up-to-date web information at low per-call cost via x402 micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'query' parameter returns a validation error
- Invalid 'gl' or 'hl' values may return unexpected locale results or an error
- Payment not attached (x402) results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion may return a 429 or 503 error
- Very obscure queries may return few or no results
- Invalid cursor value for pagination may return an error or reset to first page
