@bpedro if you can detect API changes, data format changes, header changes, etc, that's something I might be interested in as an API producer.
Would basically work as a sort of automated acceptance testing of my API if I could get an alert if we inadvertently changed something, or simply a reminder of making sure our documentation matches reality.

The concept is interesting
But it seems it should be more correctly called 'get notified when api docs change'
Many APIs (especially the ones prone to change (i am looking at you facebook)) are lagging behind with their api documentation.

Awesome to see this atop PH today! I originally created API Changelog and @bpedro is doing a great job running with it.
There are a few reasons why watching docs over actual calls is useful (though it's just one vector, and watching real calls is useful too but I'll come back to that). The biggest reason is that a lot of changes to APIs, particularly public… See more

this looks like it could be a very useful utility. There are a number of ways that it could be improved (as others highlight), but I think it's a great start.
