## 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 meetup-events-groups-scraper-x402-4208c1cc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Find me upcoming in-person tech meetup events in Austin, Texas this week — search for 'JavaScript' and sort by date, showing up to 50 results.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured Meetup.com event or group data for a specific city or coordinates, optionally filtered by keyword, date range, event type, or minimum RSVP count. Ideal for agents helping users discover local networking, hobby, or professional community events. Prefer over generic web scraping when you want clean, schema-consistent Meetup data without parsing HTML. The pay-per-call model with no charge for empty results makes it cost-efficient for speculative searches.

## Known failure modes

- No events found for the given location/keyword — returns empty items array (not charged)
- Missing required coordinate pair (lat without lon or vice versa) — validation error
- Invalid country code format — may return no results or error
- Date range filters excluding all available events — returns empty result
- searchKeyword omitted for groups mode — likely required and may return error
- Rate limit or payment failure — 402 response blocking the call

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of results and an array of items, each containing event/group ID, name, URL, type (physical/online/hybrid), start date/time, description, RSVP status, and record type. Failed or empty searches are not billed.
