Automated NordLayer Onboarding Checklist

Every morning, WebRun opens NordLayer, checks which team members still have an incomplete device enrollment or gateway assignment, updates the onboarding checklist in Google Drive, and posts the outstanding list to Slack so IT can close the gap the same day.

In short

How do I make sure new hires finish their NordLayer setup?

WebRun checks NordLayer every morning for team members with an incomplete device enrollment or gateway assignment, updates the running onboarding checklist in Google Drive, and posts the outstanding list to Slack for IT. It never grants access or configures a gateway itself, so a stalled setup gets seen and finished the same day instead of drifting for weeks.

  • Incomplete setups get flagged the next morning, not weeks later
  • IT works from one running checklist instead of hunting through NordLayer
  • Slack stays quiet on days when every team member is fully set up

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does WebRun grant or configure network access itself?

No. WebRun only reports who is still incomplete. Assigning a gateway or approving a device is left for your IT admin to do in NordLayer.

Will it post to Slack if everyone is already set up?

No. It only posts when at least one team member has an incomplete setup, so the channel stays quiet on a clean day.

How long before someone is flagged as overdue?

It flags anyone still incomplete the day after their invite, and keeps counting the days outstanding until it is resolved.
