## 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 serp402-yahoo-videos-search-api-6752c43d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Yahoo Videos for 'electric vehicle reviews' and give me structured results — filter for long videos (more than 20 minutes) posted in the past month, from YouTube only, in at least 720p resolution.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured Yahoo! Videos search results specifically — useful for comparing video discovery across different search engines (vs Google or Bing), when Yahoo's index or ranking differs meaningfully, or when targeting Yahoo-specific audiences. The pay-per-call model with no subscription is ideal for sporadic or low-volume scraping needs.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported yahoo_domain returns an error or empty results
- Unsupported filter values for durs, vage, vres, or vsite may be silently ignored or cause errors
- No results returned for very niche or obscure search queries
- Rate limiting or Yahoo-side blocking may cause temporary failures
- Empty query string (p) will likely return an error or generic results
