# US Travel Advisory Monitor - Country & Level Changes — workflow

## Choose this tool

Corporate travel teams and country-risk researchers maintaining destination watchlists. Country-keyed comparisons preserve advisory-level and content changes.

Useful output columns: `countryCode`, `advisoryLevel`, `advisoryLabel`, `publishedAt`, `advisoryTextHash`.

## Practical workflow

Save the country codes on your travel watchlist. Establish a named baseline, then schedule change-only runs. Have a travel coordinator review changed levels and the complete official advisory before communicating guidance.

## Check the fit

Official State Department travel-advisory RSS only. Use two-letter country codes or ALL. Feed text is not the full guidance for each region. Read the official advisory before travel; this tool does not determine that a destination is safe.

## Real output sample

One selected row from a 2026-10-18 run. One saved row with selected scalar fields. Nested structures remain available in full Actor output.

Run: hif0Hnko1bip8PsqO. Summary status: ok. Incomplete: false.
