## 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 kiteendpoints-ai-medium-api-medium2-63956ae9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull data from the Medium API endpoint on KiteEndpoints.ai for me — just send a request to the medium2 endpoint and return whatever article or profile data comes back?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need programmatic access to Medium platform data (articles, authors, publications) without setting up your own Medium API integration, and you want to pay per request with USDC on Base chain rather than maintaining a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance on Base chain for payment — payment rejected
- Invalid or malformed request payload — 400 error
- Medium platform API unavailable or rate-limited — upstream failure
- Missing or incorrect authentication — 401/403 response
- Endpoint returns generic example response if no valid input is provided
