Yes, you can use the same way usable for monitoring single folder (your parent folder), but set the flag "recursive". In such a way all changes related to the pointed folder (the parent one) and all nested subfolder will be monitored.
Hope this clarifies matter.

mansi2821 Yes, as Здравко said, you can access subfolders just like parent folders, such as by using the 'recursive=true' option on /2/files/list_folder.
I also recommend reading the following guides for more information:
