Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 japan-apac-regulatory-watch-dataset-micro-tier-data-vending-26126d22
```

Example prompt: Fetch me the latest Japan/APAC regulatory watch dataset at the micro tier — pay with base-usdc and use the quote ID I got from the quote endpoint just now.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs a small, current sample of Japan/APAC regulatory compliance updates without user signup or API key management, and the agent is already set up for x402 USDC micropayments. Ideal for lightweight compliance monitoring or sampling before committing to a higher-tier dataset.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or expired quote_id returns an error rejecting the payment
- Unsupported rail_id value (not solana-usdc or base-usdc) returns a validation error
- Payment not yet confirmed on-chain causes a pending or rejected response
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded on the micro tier
- Dataset not updated — stale as_of_date may indicate infrequent refresh

## How this service works

HTTP-native dataset vending for autonomous AI agents. No signup, no API key — discover, pay USDC via x402, get clean JSON. Human-designed data with provenance and conservation revenue share.

## Output

A JSON object containing the dataset SKU ('compliance.jp_apac_regwatch.micro.v1'), tier ('micro'), a list of up to 2 regulatory watch items (each with a title and source count), the as-of date, the item limit, and a reference SKU for upgrading to the probe tier.
