  • Interval (Minutes) (required) — Frequency in minutes to check for changes, with a minimum of 15 minutes.
  • Additional Options — Optional settings including monitoring scope (page, site, or wire), watch mode (full page or specific data), AI mode to filter noise, alert email recipients, webhook URL for alerts, proxy country code, crawl depth and max pages for site scope, output JSON schema (required when watching specific data), session ID for monitoring authenticated pages, usage of headless browser, and Wire-specific parameters and credentials.
