## 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 stock-dividends-split-history-api-1e3438d3
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the full dividend and stock-split history for Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) over the last 10 years — I want to see every ex-date, payment amount, and any split ratios?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, per-event dividend and split history for a specific public equity ticker, especially when you want both corporate actions (dividends and splits) in a single call with configurable date ranges. Prefer this over scraping financial sites or using general-purpose search when you need clean, machine-readable records for analysis or portfolio calculations.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns empty arrays or an error
- Unsupported range value returns a validation error
- Network or upstream Yahoo Finance outage may cause timeouts or partial data
- Payment not completed (x402 required) blocks the request

## How this service works

Dividend and stock-split history for a ticker: every cash dividend (ex-date + amount) and split (date + ratio) over a configurable range (default 5y, up to max). Empty arrays for non-payers - a valid answer, not an error. Backed by Yahoo Finance's chart endpoint with events=div,split.

## Output

Returns two arrays: one listing every cash dividend event (ex-date and amount per share) and one listing every stock split event (date and ratio), both covering the requested time window. Non-dividend-paying stocks return empty arrays rather than an error.
