Automated IKEA Delivery Date Tracking

Every morning, WebRun signs into your IKEA account, reads the status and delivery window of every open order, posts changes and imminent deliveries to Slack, and drafts an SMS to the receiving contact for you to approve before it goes out.

In short

How do I get told when an IKEA delivery date changes?

WebRun checks your open IKEA orders every morning and reads the current status and delivery window for each one. It posts any date change and any delivery arriving within two days to Slack, then drafts an SMS to the receiving site contact in Twilio for you to approve, so nobody misses a truck.

  • Delivery date changes reach the team the same morning
  • Someone is always rostered on site for an arriving truck
  • No SMS reaches a contact until you release it

Step by step

What does WebRun do on every run?

The exact actions WebRun takes, in order - in plain language, so you can adjust anything.

  1. WebRun signs in and gets to work

    Opens ikea.com in a real browser with your saved login - no setup, no API keys.

  2. 1
    IKEA - check open order status
    ikea.com
    WebRun in IKEA: check open order status
    WebRun opens IKEA to check open order status.
    • Sign into your IKEA account and open the order history
    • For every order that is not yet delivered, read the current status and the promised delivery window
    • Compare each one against the date recorded on the last run and note anything that moved
    • Flag orders arriving in the next two days and anything showing a delay or a partial shipment

    Done when Every open order has a current status, and every date change since the last run is identified.

  3. 2
    Slack - post changes and arrivals
    slack.com
    WebRun in Slack: post changes and arrivals
    WebRun opens Slack to post changes and arrivals.
    • Post today's order update to your operations channel
    • Lead with any delivery date that moved, showing the old date and the new one
    • List orders arriving in the next two days so someone is on site to receive them
    • Keep delivered and unchanged orders in a short closing line rather than a long list

    Done when The operations channel has today's changes, arrivals, and a one-line status of everything else.

  4. 3
    Twilio - draft the site contact SMS
    twilio.com
    WebRun in Twilio: draft the site contact SMS
    WebRun opens Twilio to draft the site contact SMS.
    • Open Twilio and prepare an SMS for the site contact on any order arriving within two days
    • Include the order reference, the delivery window, and what is on the truck
    • Leave the message queued for your approval. WebRun never sends it on its own
    • Skip contacts already messaged about the same order and window

    Done when An approval-pending SMS is queued for each imminent delivery, with no duplicates and nothing sent.

Questions, answered

Will it text the site contact without me?

No. Every SMS sits in Twilio as an approval-pending draft. WebRun writes the wording and attaches the order details, and you release it. Nothing is sent on its own.

Can it change or cancel an IKEA order?

No. WebRun only reads your order history and delivery statuses. It never edits an order, never adds to a basket, never cancels, and never buys anything.

How does it know a date actually changed?

It stores the delivery window it saw on the previous run and compares it to today's, so the Slack post shows the old date next to the new one rather than repeating the same status daily.

Put this on autopilot.
