How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it overwrite existing calendar events?
No. WebRun only creates new events. If an event for that matter and date already exists, it flags the potential duplicate in Slack rather than overwriting anything.
What if a date changes after the matter is opened?
You can trigger WebRun manually when dates change. It will add the new events and flag the old ones for you to remove — it does not auto-delete existing calendar events.
Can it handle multi-timezone teams?
Yes. You configure the default timezone for the firm's calendar, and WebRun uses that for all events. Attorneys in different time zones see events correctly in their own Google Calendar.
