Monitors
- Every monitor now has a
thumbnail_url: a 640-pixel-wide screenshot of the first page it watches, taken after you create the monitor and again when an edit changes that page.
Monitors, map, brand and company
- Search targets for monitors. Watch up to 5 web searches and hear about new results that match your goal. See Targets.
- Automatic pausing. A monitor whose every page fails for 10 checks in a row, over at least 24 hours, is paused and its recipients are told.
/mapranks results most useful first, and the first 10 links carry their page’s title and description. A map that finds nothing fails withNO_LINKS_FOUND, free./brandreturns the color each role uses on the page inbrand.colors.roles, and finds social links in more places./companyreturns the site’s key pages inlinks: about, pricing, careers, contact, blog and docs.
