In short

How do I warn users before they run out of storage quota?

WebRun checks your Nextcloud storage every morning. It reads each user's quota and how much they have used, works out who is close to filling their allowance, opens a Trello card for the IT team on every account at risk, and drafts a heads-up email so nobody loses an upload mid-deadline.

  • Users hear about a full account before an upload fails
  • Growth rate shows how many days each account has left
  • No file is deleted and no quota changed without an admin

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it delete files to free up space?

No. WebRun never deletes, moves, or archives a file. It reports how full each account is and leaves every decision about what to remove with the person who owns the files.

Does it email users automatically?

No. Each heads-up note is left unsent in Gmail Drafts. You read it, decide whether the person needs it, and send it yourself.

Can it raise someone's quota?

No. Changing a quota is an admin action, so WebRun only flags the account and opens a Trello card. Your admin raises the limit if that is the right answer.

Put this on autopilot.
