Hi, do you know of any api which can notify me when a payment to a specific address for a specific amount has been made?

Mempool.space has an API

Thanks, yes I noticed that too. I wonder if mempool is less ram hungry than btc rpc explorer (running on my node). Both have an API that I could use.

I think you would have to play with zmq settings in bitcoin.conf and then read those notifications.
Sorry I don't exactly how to do it but I know that zmq feature is used for that.
Try better here

Yeah I forgot my node can do all that haha. The whole idea of bitcoin is not to query any api unless it is the one you control.
I will probably install rpc explorer and query that endpoint. Thanks
