This is a data sharing service that enables a fast and efficient way of monitoring for updates. With the PUSH methodology (Webhooks), SCALAR will only send out an update when it has something new.

 

Warning: not every PULL API will have a PUSH equivalent. This depends on the usefulness, as PUSH APIs are (mainly) used for time-sensitive information.
