## 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

Example prompt: Can you verify this Peruvian national ID for me? The document type is DNI and the number is 12345678 — I need to confirm the identity is valid before onboarding this user.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to verify a Peruvian individual's national identity document (DNI/cédula) as part of a KYC or onboarding workflow. It is ideal for autonomous agents that need pay-per-use identity validation without a subscription, and specifically for Peru-based identity checks with deep LATAM registry coverage.
