Automatic Imgix Usage Threshold Alerts

Every hour, WebRun opens Imgix, reads the current period's image request and bandwidth usage against your plan limit, sends a WhatsApp alert the moment usage spikes, and logs a calendar follow up to review the account before the billing cycle closes.

In short

How do I get warned before my Imgix usage goes over its plan limit?

WebRun checks your Imgix account's image request and bandwidth usage every hour, compares it against your plan limit, and sends a WhatsApp alert the moment usage crosses 80 percent. It also logs a same day calendar reminder to review the account, so a traffic spike gets a same day human look instead of turning into a surprise overage at the end of the billing cycle.

  • Usage spikes get a same day WhatsApp alert instead of a surprise invoice
  • Every check compares live usage against your actual plan limit
  • A calendar reminder makes sure someone actually reviews the account

Questions, answered

Does it change my Imgix plan or billing?

No. WebRun only reads usage figures and reports them. Upgrading the plan or changing billing stays a manual step you take in Imgix.

Will I get spammed with alerts?

No. WebRun sends at most one WhatsApp alert per day, only when usage crosses the 80% threshold you'd actually want to know about.

What if usage resets each billing cycle?

WebRun reads the live current period figure each time it checks, so the alert always reflects where you stand in the current cycle, not a stale total.
