## 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 korea-export-pulse-monthly-trade-data-feed-39dc141e
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest Korea export pulse data for the past 3 months — I want to see the year-over-year growth rate and which sectors like semiconductors are contributing the most percentage points.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, structured, pay-per-use snapshot of South Korea's latest export figures with sector-level attribution — especially useful for macro analysis, investment research, or trade monitoring without requiring a subscription or API key. Prefer over general web scraping when you need clean, structured JSON with YoY and contribution data ready to use.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or insufficient USDC — returns HTTP 402 requiring x402 payment
- Invalid 'months' query parameter value — may return 400 or default behavior
- Upstream trade data not yet published for the current period — may return stale or empty latest period
- Network timeout or gateway error from pokt-agent infrastructure — returns 5xx

## How this service works

Pay-per-call Korean company due diligence, company ID crosswalk, sanctions screening with Korean name variants, Upbit/Bithumb risk events, HWP to Markdown, business status, business-day calendar, address normalisation, law, rates, filings and more. No account or API key: pay each call in USDC on Base via x402.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the latest export period label (e.g. '2026-10-01..10'), a year-over-year percentage change figure, and an array of sector contribution objects each specifying an item name (e.g. 'semiconductors') and its contribution in percentage points.
