This depends on what you exactly want to achieve.

Just create a process called "My Process API" which the API will call. In My Process API, you simply call your other regular process as a sub process. This way you will be able to differentiate the calls originating from the API from those where the process is just called from within the application in the Monitoring view.

If you want to get notified, then you can also configure a send email node that sends you or a group of users an email every time API triggers a process model.
FYI, the number of times the process model is triggered by the service account = the number of times API was called.

[quote userid="85941" url="~/discussions/f/integrations/29047/how-do-i-know-when-an-api-is-getting-triggered"] I see this process model is getting triggered every now and then started by a service account[/quote]

You already mentioned the answer yourself :)

Just open the process plugged in API and check Process Instances?

Thank you for the response Mathieu Drouin

I did not understand what you meant exactly. Could you please explain more on how to create a wrapper process?

How about creating a wrapper process that is used solely by the API which then calls your process model?
