Is there a way in FME to watch an API directory?
What i'm trying to do is to get FME to watch http://geoportal.statistics.gov.uk/datasets?q=NSPL

You could poll every so many minutes. Compare with the last saved result.
You can access the (undocumented?) API here: https://opendata.arcgis.com/api/v2/
Some Swagger UI examples are provided by Alexander Haggis: https://akharris.github.io/arc-swag/#/
Use HTTPCaller to create the appropriate requests. Poll like @nielsgerrits says.
This is a ZIP file with an example workspace for using HTTPCaller to fetch datasets: https://gist.github.com/FrieseWoudloper/1ca63a104d31eaa4e8075ab260f85267/archive/54b444c179dbcb8441c4af0cdc1a75491db0b804.zip
