Monitoring changes in html structure

Help and Support
1

I’m interested in monitoring a website’s html structure, specifically focusing on changes like:

  • New elements: Addition of new columns, sections, or other html tags.
  • Modified elements: Changes to existing html tags, such as renaming column headers or altering class attributes.
  • Removed elements: Deletion of columns, sections, or other html tags.

If distill is capable of detecting such structural changes, please provide guidance on the best configuration or monitoring strategy to achieve this?

Thanks!

it is possible to monitor changes to html using outerHTML property. check out the following link to see how to use the visual selector to configure it: https://distill.io/docs/web-monitor/what-is-visual-selector/#how-to-monitor-attribute-and-property-value-for-the-selected-element
