## 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 vibes-api-hub-youtube-data-v2-fdbf0dde -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the stats for this YouTube video — title, view count, and channel info — for the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need YouTube video or channel metadata programmatically and want to pay per-call without a subscription, especially in agent workflows using the x402 micropayment protocol on Base chain. Prefer this over direct YouTube Data API calls when you lack a Google API key or want cost-efficient per-use billing.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent video/channel ID returns an error or empty result
- Payment failure on Base chain blocks the request
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion on the underlying YouTube API
- Malformed request body causes a 400 error
- Video is private or deleted and cannot be retrieved
