Automated Prism.fm Show Cancellation and Hold Alerts

Every few minutes, WebRun checks Prism.fm for shows that have changed to a hold, cancellation, or postponement status since the last check, logs each exception in a Google Sheet with a timestamp, and immediately sends a Telegram alert to your operations team with the show name, original date, and next-step prompts.

How do I get instant alerts when a show is cancelled or put on hold in Prism.fm?

The alert reaches your team within minutes of the change.

  • Operations team is alerted to show exceptions within minutes, not hours
  • Every status change is logged with a timestamp in Google Sheets for audit

Questions, answered

Will it notify artists or the public about a cancellation?

No. Alerts go only to your internal Telegram operations group. No external contact, artist, or fan is notified automatically.

What status changes trigger an alert?

Hold, Cancelled, and Postponed by default. You can configure which status transitions trigger an alert to match your workflow.

How quickly does the alert arrive?

WebRun checks Prism.fm every few minutes, so your team receives the Telegram alert within minutes of the status change.

Put this on autopilot.
