Bind a webhook so the next gazette does not silently stale a value you already paid for. REGISTERING IS FREE. Register: $0 · Delivery after trial: $0.10. First 3 deliveries are free; later deliveries are $0.10 and refunded if the webhook fails to send. HMAC-SHA256 signed. Two watch types on the same call: • series: ["za/vat-registration-threshold", "ke/*", "*"] → series.changed when the served value or its effective date moves. On usaref those watches are statutory (minimum-wage, income-tax, statutory-interest, sales-tax, public-holidays), not a FRED-macro subscription. • sources: ["<exact official source.url>"] → source.changed when the document BYTES change (old/new sha256 + citing series). Bytes ≠ value. Value changes arrive as series.changed. Unknown URLs refuse free (source_not_fingerprinted). Max 20 series + 20 sources. Required: url. Optional: api_key stored on the subscription to fund deliveries after the trial. This call does not meter that key. Prefer this over polling get_changes if you are a long-running agent. This is retention, not a new data product.
