## 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 verifik-ai-onu-sanctions-check-928d3c15 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you screen Juan Carlos Rodríguez, born 12/05/1978, against the UN (ONU) sanctions list using his Colombian cédula de ciudadanía document number 80456123 to check if he has any sanctions exposure before we onboard him?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to screen an individual or entity against United Nations (ONU) sanctions and international watchlists, especially for LATAM-based identities. Prefer this over generic KYC providers when you need pay-per-call pricing without subscription lock-in, when dealing with Latin American document types (CC, CE, CPF, DUI, etc.), or when integrating sanctions screening into an autonomous agent workflow via x402 micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required documentType or documentNumber when fullName not provided — returns validation error
- Missing dateOfBirth for document types that require it (CCPA, CI, CPF, DUI, CCUY) — returns error
- Missing expirationDate for document types CE, PPT, PEP — returns error
- Invalid document format — returns parsing or validation error
- Individual not found in registry — returns empty or no-match result
- Payment failure via x402 — HTTP 402 returned before processing
- Network timeout or upstream registry unavailability — connection error
