Checks if some API endpoint's response has changed. Works by creating and storing a JSON schema from the endpoint's response and using it to validate the next response. Depending on the configuration, the stored JSON schema can be updated every time the response changes.

The code examples below show how to run the Actor and get its results. To run the code, you need to have an Apify account. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the code with your API token, which you can find under Settings > Integrations in Apify Console. Learn more

1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
2
3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4const client = new ApifyClient({
5    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
6});
7
8// Prepare Actor input
9const input = {
10    "endpoints": [
11        "https://dummyjson.com/products",
12        "curl 'https://dummyjson.com/carts' -H 'Accept: application/json'"
13    ]
14};
15
16(async () => {
17    // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
18    const run = await client.actor("marco.gullo/api-response-watcher").call(input);
19
20    // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
21    console.log('Results from dataset');
22    console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
23    const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
24    items.forEach((item) => {
25        console.dir(item);
26    });
27})();
