Automated Imgur Upload Index and Backup
Every night, WebRun signs in to Imgur, walks your images and albums, records each one in a Notion index with its title, direct link, album, and upload date, and posts the night's new additions to Slack so the index you control stays current.
Imgur
walk your images and albums
How do I keep my own index of everything I uploaded to Imgur?
WebRun signs in to Imgur every night and walks your images and albums, recording each one in a Notion index with its title, direct link, album, and upload date. It posts the night's additions to Slack and marks any indexed link that has stopped resolving.
- A lost account does not take the work with it
- Every image carries its direct link and upload date
- Links that stop resolving are flagged instead of vanishing

Questions, answered
Will it post, delete, or edit anything on Imgur?
No. This run is read only on your account. It walks your images and albums to build the index and never uploads, posts publicly, edits a title, or deletes an image.
What happens if an upload disappears?
The index keeps the row and marks the link as no longer resolving, so a deleted post or a broken link is visible in Notion rather than quietly vanishing along with the record of it.
Does it track views or engagement?
No. This one ignores engagement entirely and preserves the uploads themselves: title, direct link, album, and upload date, in an index that lives outside the platform.
