## Filters
|
|
XPath, JSONPath and CSS support comes baked in! You can be as specific as you need, use XPath exported from various XPath element query creation tools.
|
|
|
|
(We support LXML re:test, re:math and re:replace.)
|
|
|
|
## Notifications
|
|
|
|
ChangeDetection.io supports a massive amount of notifications (including email, office365, custom APIs, etc) when a web-page has a change detected thanks to the <a href="https://github.com/caronc/apprise">apprise</a> library.
|
|
Simply set one or more notification URL's in the _[edit]_ tab of that watch.
|
|
|
|
Just some examples
|
|
|
|
discord://webhook_id/webhook_token
|
|
flock://app_token/g:channel_id
|
|
gitter://token/room
|
|
gchat://workspace/key/token
|
|
msteams://TokenA/TokenB/TokenC/
|
|
o365://TenantID:AccountEmail/ClientID/ClientSecret/TargetEmail
|
|
rocket://user:password@hostname/#Channel
|
|
mailto://user:pass@example.com?to=receivingAddress@example.com
|
|
json://someserver.com/custom-api
|
|
syslog://
|
|
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/caronc/apprise#popular-notification-services">And everything else in this list!</a>
|
|
|
|
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/master/screenshot-notifications.png" style="max-width:100%;" alt="Self-hosted web page change monitoring notifications" title="Self-hosted web page change monitoring notifications" />
|
|
|
|
Now you can also customise your notification content!
|
|
|
|
## JSON API Monitoring
|
|
|
|
Detect changes and monitor data in JSON API's by using the built-in JSONPath selectors as a filter / selector.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will re-parse the JSON and apply formatting to the text, making it super easy to monitor and detect changes in JSON API results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Parse JSON embedded in HTML!
|
|
|
|
When you enable a `json:` filter, you can even automatically extract and parse embedded JSON inside a HTML page! Amazingly handy for sites that build content based on JSON, such as many e-commerce websites.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<html>
|
|
...
|
|
<script type="application/ld+json">
|
|
{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Product","name":"Nan Optipro Stage 1 Baby Formula 800g","price": 23.50 }
|
|
</script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`json:$.price` would give `23.50`, or you can extract the whole structure
|
|
|
|
