## 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-national-diet-member-profile-api-2765a5cf
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full profile for Japanese Diet member with ID 'yamada-taro-001' — I need their name in kanji and English, which house they sit in, their party, constituency, how many times they've been elected, their current position, and any committee memberships?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a canonical Diet member ID and need comprehensive structured biographical data about a specific Japanese legislator, including multilingual name forms, institutional affiliation, and committee details. Prefer this over the search endpoint when you already know the member's ID. It is ideal for enriching politician references in news, policy research, or political analytics pipelines that operate on Japanese parliamentary data.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or invalid member ID returns a 404 not found error
- Retired or former members may not be present if the database covers only current members
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in 402 Payment Required
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns a 5xx error
- Malformed ID format may return a 400 bad request
