In short

How do I keep a backup and daily digest of new LottieFiles animations?

WebRun checks your LottieFiles workspace every morning for animations uploaded since the day before, archives a copy of each into your shared Google Drive animation library, and posts the day's new additions to Slack with previews linked, so the team always knows what's new without opening the workspace directly.

  • Every new animation gets backed up automatically
  • The team sees new animations the same day without searching
  • The animation library stays organized by project in Drive

Questions, answered

Does it upload or create animations?

No. WebRun only backs up and shares animations your team has already uploaded. It never creates or edits Lottie files itself.

Where does the backup copy go?

Into the shared animation library folder in Google Drive, filed under the matching project, separate from the live LottieFiles workspace.

What if no animations were uploaded that day?

It simply skips the Slack post, so the channel only gets pinged when there's actually something new.

Put this on autopilot.
