Automated Pushwoosh Stale Subscriber Alerts

Every Monday, WebRun opens Pushwoosh, checks the subscriber base for devices that have gone inactive or stopped receiving pushes over the past 60 days, posts a Slack alert with the inactive count and share of the base, and escalates to Telegram if the inactive share has grown large enough to affect delivery reporting.

In short

How do I track inactive Pushwoosh subscribers before they skew my reporting?

Every Monday, WebRun checks the Pushwoosh subscriber base for devices with no delivered push in the past 60 days, posts a Slack alert with the inactive count and share, and escalates to Telegram if that share has grown noticeably from the prior week. A quietly growing stale subscriber base gets caught before it skews delivery reporting.

  • Inactive subscriber growth gets caught the week it starts
  • Delivery reporting stays meaningful instead of quietly skewed
  • A weekly health check runs without anyone remembering to pull it

Questions, answered

Does it remove the inactive subscribers?

No. WebRun only measures and reports the inactive share. Removing or re-engaging those subscribers stays a decision for your team.

What counts as inactive?

A device with no delivered push notification in the past 60 days, a window you can adjust to match your own engagement pattern.

Why does this matter for delivery reporting?

A large inactive share can quietly drag down your overall delivery numbers, so catching the trend early keeps reporting meaningful.

Put this on autopilot.
