Automated Crowdfire Failed Post Alerts

Every hour, WebRun opens Crowdfire, checks the scheduled queue for posts that failed to publish or are stuck pending, alerts Slack the moment one is found, and sends a Telegram digest at the end of the day summarizing every failure.

In short

How do I get notified when a Crowdfire post fails to publish?

WebRun checks Crowdfire's scheduled queue every hour for posts that failed to publish or are stuck pending, and alerts Slack the moment it finds one so the account manager can react fast. At the end of the day it sends a Telegram digest rounding up every failure, so nothing silently drops off your posting schedule unnoticed.

  • Failed posts get a Slack alert within the hour instead of going unnoticed
  • One clean Telegram digest rounds up every failure at day's end
  • Account managers spend less time manually checking the queue

Questions, answered

Does WebRun retry or republish the failed post?

No. It only detects and reports the failure. Retrying or editing the post is left to whoever manages that account inside Crowdfire.

Why both a Slack alert and a Telegram digest?

Slack gets you the failure the hour it happens so you can react fast, while the Telegram digest gives a clean end of day rollup for anyone who was not watching Slack all day.

What counts as a failed post?

Anything Crowdfire itself marks as failed, or a scheduled post still pending well past its publish time, the same signals you would see checking the queue manually.

Put this on autopilot.
