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.

You can access the API Response Watcher programmatically from your own JavaScript applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.

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