# Unit Converter - List Units by Measure

> Unit Converter - List Units by Measure is a paid API for AI agents from unit.openverbs.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Lists all available unit types and conversion options for a given measurement category (e.g. length, mass, temperature).

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 unit-converter-list-units-by-measure-74658b34 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What units are available for converting mass measurements? I want to see everything supported under the mass category.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover what units are available before performing a conversion, or when building a UI that lets users select units dynamically. Ideal for populating dropdowns, validating user input unit names, or checking if a specific unit type is supported within a given measurement category.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid measure enum value returns an error — must be one of the 23 supported categories
- Empty or malformed body may return a validation error
- Network timeout for slow connections
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.002 per-call fee

## How this service works

List the supported units and their metadata (abbreviation, measure, system, singular/plural names), optionally filtered to a single measure — a discovery endpoint for choosing valid `from`/`to` values.

## Output

Returns a list of all supported units within the specified measurement category (e.g. all length units: meters, feet, inches, etc.), or all units across all categories if no measure filter is provided.
