## 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 serper-google-videos-search-via-serper-ed9c3845 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Google Videos for 'how to make sourdough bread' and give me the top 5 results including video titles, channels, durations, and links.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured video search results from Google's video index, including metadata like duration, channel, and platform. Prefer this over generic web search when the user specifically wants video content. Choose this over YouTube's own API when you want results across multiple video platforms, not just YouTube.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or overly broad query returns low-relevance results
- Query in unsupported language may yield poor results
- Rate limiting or authentication errors if API key is invalid
- No results found for very niche or obscure queries
- Network timeout for slow upstream Google responses

## How this service works

Google Videos search - returns video results with titles, links, channels, durations, dates, and platforms (YouTube, Vimeo, etc). Use for finding video content, tutorials, or media. Pagination billing: call the first page normally and save billing.requestId from the Orthogonal /v1/run response. For later page, offset, or cursor calls on the same logical search, pass parentRequestId with unchanged non-pagination parameters. Valid continuation calls still get their own request IDs and quoted price, but are charged 0. Changing filters starts a new billable request.

## Output

Returns a list of video results from Google's video search index, each containing the video title, URL, channel name, duration, publish date, platform (e.g. YouTube), and thumbnail. Results mirror what a user would see on Google's video search results page.
