## 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 stablesocial-youtube-video-comments-9247d783 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you grab the top comments from this YouTube video for me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ — I want them sorted by top comments.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-request YouTube comment scraping without authentication, subscriptions, or API key management. Ideal for agents that occasionally need comment data from YouTube videos without committing to a platform API quota. Best when combined with other StableSocial endpoints for multi-platform social listening.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible YouTube URL returns an error
- Comments disabled on the video result in an empty or error response
- Invalid continuationToken causes pagination failure
- Rate limits or platform-side blocking may cause intermittent failures
- Deleted or private videos return no data

## How this service works

Pay-per-request access to social media data from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn. No auth, no subscriptions.

## Output

Returns a list of comments from the specified YouTube video, ordered by top engagement or newest first. Each comment typically includes the comment text, author, and engagement metrics. A continuationToken is provided to paginate and retrieve the next batch of comments.
