Prerequisites

  • An approved robot (note that you can also add a monitor when you create a robot directly)

How to set up monitors and notifications

  1. Do to your Browse AI dashboard and select the robot you'd like to monitor

  2. Click the Monitor tab

  3. Select Add monitor (or edit an existing one)

  4. Check Notify me by email if there is a change in a captured text

  5. Click Save

The robot will now send you an email whenever it detects changes in your monitored data. The email will show you exactly what changed.

Tips for effective monitoring

  • Make sure your email address is verified

  • Test your monitor after setting it up

  • Check your spam folder if you're not receiving alerts

  • Set an appropriate monitoring frequency based on how often the data typically changes

What does monitoring do?

Monitoring lets you track changes on any website automatically. Instead of manually checking websites, your robot regularly checks for changes and alerts you when something updates.

This is helpful for:

  • Tracking price changes

  • Watching for new products

  • Following competitor updates

  • Staying informed about market changes

  • ....and more.
