## 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 syntalic-retailer-assortment-api-de6bf44e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull Syntalic's retailer assortment data for Nike in the US, specifically in the apparel category, so I can see which retailers are carrying their products?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to understand a brand's retail distribution footprint — specifically which retailers carry their products in a given category and country. Prefer this over price or promo endpoints when the core question is about assortment breadth and channel presence rather than pricing dynamics or promotional activity.

## Known failure modes

- Brand name not found or misspelled — returns empty or no results
- Category string not matched in Shopify taxonomy — returns category resolution error or empty set
- Invalid country code (not 'us' or 'ca') — validation error
- Payment not attached or insufficient — HTTP 402 payment required
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — HTTP 429
- GPC code not exactly 8 digits — fails category resolution

Accepts a display path (e.g. 'Electronics > Computers > Laptops'), its slug form (e.g. 'electronics/computers/laptops'), a single path segment (e.g. 'laptops', 'headphones'), or an everyday shelf name (e.g. 'apparel', 'beauty', 'grocery'); matched against the catalog's category tree (exact node, subtree, or whole path segment). Also accepts a GS1 GPC code (exactly 8 digits, e.g. '10001159') to filter by PRODUCT TYPE instead of by shelf placement — the same product type is shelved under different categories by different retailers, so a category filter answers from a fraction of the data while a GPC code spans them. Coarser codes (class/family/segment) match every brick beneath them. Resolve a phrase to a code with /v1/reference/classify?q=... ; when a code is used, resolved.match_source is 'gpc'."
