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 Python 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.

1from apify_client import ApifyClient
2
3# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
5client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")
6
7# Prepare the Actor input
8run_input = { "endpoints": [
9        "https://dummyjson.com/products",
10        "curl 'https://dummyjson.com/carts' -H 'Accept: application/json'",
11    ] }
12
13# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
14run = client.actor("marco.gullo/api-response-watcher").call(run_input=run_input)
15
16# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
17print("💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"])
18for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
19    print(item)
