## 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-youtube-search-97204ca3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search YouTube for 'beginner Python tutorials 2024' and give me the top results with titles and links.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic access to YouTube search results and want to pay per-request in USDC without managing a YouTube Data API key or quota. Ideal for agents that occasionally need to surface YouTube video content without committing to a full YouTube API integration.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing search query returns an error response
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance blocks the request
- YouTube API quota or upstream rate limiting causes failure
- Empty result set returned for highly specific or obscure queries
- Network timeout or upstream YouTube service unavailability

## How this service works

400+ paid API endpoints. Social media, AI, crypto, finance, weather, ecommerce, tools. Pay per request with USDC on Base chain.

## Output

Returns a result object containing YouTube search results, likely including video titles, URLs, channel names, and other video metadata for the queried search terms.
