Automated Instagantt Behind-Schedule Task Export

Every Monday, WebRun opens Instagantt, compares each task's progress to its planned timeline, flags anything running behind, logs it in Airtable with the assignee and days delayed, and emails the project manager a sorted summary.

In short

How do I track tasks running behind schedule in Instagantt?

WebRun checks Instagantt every Monday, compares each task's progress to its planned timeline, and flags anything running behind. It logs every delayed task in Airtable with the assignee and days behind, then emails the project manager a sorted summary, so timeline slippage gets caught on a fixed weekly schedule instead of at the deadline.

  • Timeline slippage gets caught on a fixed weekly schedule
  • Delayed tasks stay logged with a running history across weeks
  • Tasks that catch up are marked resolved automatically

Questions, answered

Will it change any dates on the timeline?

No. WebRun only compares progress to the plan you built in Instagantt. It never edits a date or a dependency.

What counts as behind schedule?

Any task whose logged progress is behind where the planned timeline says it should be by today's date.

What if a task catches back up?

It reads live progress each Monday, so a task that's back on track is marked caught up in the Airtable log instead of staying flagged.
