Automated Dropbox Sign Decline Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens Dropbox Sign, looks for signature requests a signer declined or that never reached an inbox, checks Gmail for the matching bounce notice, drafts a corrected re-send, and posts the deal owner a short Slack alert.
How do I find out when a signature request is declined or bounces?
WebRun checks Dropbox Sign every hour for signature requests that will never complete: ones a signer declined and ones whose invitation bounced. It confirms the delivery failure in Gmail, drafts a corrected re-send for your approval, and posts the deal owner a Slack alert naming the document and signer.
- Declined contracts reach the deal owner within the hour
- Bounced invitations are caught before the deal quietly stalls
- A corrected re-send is drafted and waiting, ready to approve

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 email the signer again on its own?
No. WebRun writes the corrected note as an unsent Gmail draft and leaves it for you to read and send. Nothing reaches a signer without a person approving it first.
How is this different from chasing a late signature?
A late signature can still be signed. This watches for requests that are already dead: the signer pressed decline, or the invitation bounced and never reached an inbox at all.
How quickly will I hear about a decline?
Within the hour. WebRun checks Dropbox Sign every hour, so a declined contract reaches the deal owner in Slack the same working day rather than at the next follow-up.
