There are a number of projects which allow for website monitoring, but I required a relatively customized one (for educational purposes). Specifically, I wanted to monitor the Apple.com refurbished section for iPhone 12 models and receive a push notification to my phone when it appears there. To achieve this, I employed the use of Make.com, ScrapeNinja, and ntfy and was able to get it running in around 30 minutes.
Thank you! The ScrapeNinja app was finally approved and made public by the Make.com moderation team, so I hope ScrapeNinja will now help makers in complex real-world scenarios. Cheers!
Love the practical setup! ScrapeNinja and ntfy make a solid lightweight combo for this kind of real-time alerting. In my work with lead management and multi-channel marketing, I’ve used Phonexa to build similar data-triggered workflows—especially for phone call routing and campaign attribution. It’s impressive how powerful low-code platforms have become for monitoring high-value data points. Would be cool to see this logic extended to sales signals or inventory alerts across industries.
ScrapeNinja is cool, changedetection adds features like conditions, easier alert integration with discord, ntfy, email, make-com API hooks (custom hooks) etc
