## 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 suverse-world-bank-youth-unemployment-rate-api-5cb79ba4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the World Bank youth unemployment time series for Brazil (ISO code BR) so I can see how the rate has changed year by year?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, historical yearly youth unemployment data backed by the World Bank for cross-country macroeconomic or demographic analysis, especially when you want to avoid managing API keys or setting up a World Bank API client directly. It is ideal for agents performing macro research, development economics analysis, or building dashboards that require standardized international labor market statistics.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ISO country code returns an error or empty result
- Countries with sparse World Bank data may have many null/missing values for certain years
- Network or proxy service downtime results in a non-200 response
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents data retrieval
- No data available for very recent years due to World Bank publication lag
