# Docs change feed: new and updated documentation pages

**Use case:** 

See which documentation pages are new, removed or updated, from the lastmod dates in a docs sitemap. Preset: Kubernetes English docs. A page is modified only when its lastmod changes. $0.30/1,000 baseline URLs, $2/1,000 changes. Not affiliated with Kubernetes or the CNCF.

## Input

```json
{
  "sites": [
    "https://docs.apify.com/sitemap.xml"
  ],
  "mode": "monitor",
  "maxUrlsPerSite": 100,
  "maxChanges": 2000,
  "includeExisting": false,
  "includeProfileUrls": false,
  "rollingSitemaps": [],
  "stateKey": "docs-feed",
  "shrinkGuardPercent": 50
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "site": {
    "label": "Site",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "changeType": {
    "label": "Change",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",
    "format": "link"
  },
  "lastmod": {

    "label": "Sitemap",
    "format": "link"

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Sitemap Change Monitor: New, Removed and Changed URLs](https://apify.com/frostpine456/sitemap-monitor.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/frostpine456/sitemap-monitor.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
