Is there a way to be notified(alerted) if any saved searches are modified?

[nihvk]

I am looking for an alert when any search in (rest /services/saved/searches splunk_server=local) is being modified.

The configtracker feature of Splunk 9.x can help with that.  Start with this query and modify it to suit your needs.

index=_configtracker "data.path"=*savedsearches.conf
