## 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 meterly-ai-instagram-stories-videos-downloader-60f5ed77 -d '<json body>'
```

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically download Instagram story or video content by URL or username, especially in automated agent workflows where pay-per-call USDC pricing via x402 is acceptable. Prefer this over manual tools when integrating into an AI agent pipeline on Base Mainnet.

## Known failure modes

- Private or restricted Instagram account returns no results or access denied
- Invalid or expired Instagram URL yields empty or error response
- Rate limiting from Instagram-side may cause timeouts
- Missing required 'query' field returns validation error
- Deleted or expired stories return 404 or empty data
