Automated Groove Overdue Ticket Alerts

Every afternoon, WebRun opens Groove, finds tickets that have been open more than 24 hours without a reply, adds a follow-up block to the assigned agent's Google Calendar, and pings that agent on WhatsApp with the ticket count and the oldest one's age.

In short

How do I stop Groove tickets from going a full day unanswered?

WebRun checks Groove every afternoon for tickets open more than 24 hours without a reply, blocks a follow-up slot on the assigned agent's Google Calendar, and pings them on WhatsApp with the count. This keeps overdue tickets from stacking up further overnight, giving small support teams a clear nudge to catch up before end of day.

  • Overdue tickets get a blocked follow-up slot before they stack up further
  • Agents get a direct WhatsApp nudge instead of checking the queue themselves
  • 24-hour-old tickets get caught the same afternoon, not the next morning

Questions, answered

Does WebRun reply to the overdue tickets?

No. It only blocks calendar time and pings the assigned agent. Every reply to a customer is still typed and sent by a person in Groove.

How is a ticket considered overdue?

Any open Groove ticket with no reply for more than 24 hours. WebRun reads this directly from the ticket's own timestamps.

What if an agent has no overdue tickets?

They get no calendar block and no WhatsApp ping that day. Only agents with tickets actually overdue past 24 hours are contacted.
