Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it delete or unpublish a stale app?
No. Deleting an app is irreversible, so WebRun only lists the candidates with their owner and last reload date. Retiring or repairing an app stays a decision your BI team makes.
Does it catch apps with no reload schedule?
Yes. An app with no schedule set is flagged alongside the ones whose schedule stopped working, because both leave a dashboard showing data that is quietly out of date.
How is this different from a reload failure alert?
A failure alert fires when a scheduled reload errors. This sweep looks at every app's last reload date, so it also finds the dashboards nobody noticed had stopped refreshing weeks ago.
