Parallel Web Systems Monitor API is one of 8 APIs that [Parallel Web Systems](https://apis.io/providers/parallel-web-systems/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Monitors. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, rate-limit docs, an API reference, and a getting-started guide.

The Monitor API watches the web for material changes on a fixed frequency. Each monitor runs once on creation and then on its configured schedule, emitting events when meaningful changes are detected. - `event_stream` monitors track a search query and emit an event for each new material change. - `snapshot` monitors track a specific task run's output and emit an event when the output changes. Results can be polled via the events endpoint or delivered via webhooks.
