Where can I see the dataZoa API and its documentation?

Right here!

How Can I find and download only recently changed series?

First use the SeriesList() function to identify series of interest. It fetches series metadata (including date modified) for up to 8000 series at a time. This makes compiling a list of series keys which were last updated within a given date range fast and inexpensive, programmatically speaking.

Once you have compiled your list of series of interest, use the usual SeriesGet() function to retrieve the series themselves.

This is the way any polling/syncing script should be checking for which series need to be processed; allowing you to only fetch/sync those series of interest.
