Exa Public API / Create a Monitor

Creates a new Monitor to run recurring Exa searches on a schedule. Monitors automatically execute your search query on a recurring schedule and deliver results to your webhook endpoint with automatic deduplication: - Date-based filtering only fetches content since the last run - Semantic deduplication tracks previous outputs to surface only new developments The response includes a webhookSecret that is only returned once at creation time. Store it securely for webhook signature verification.
