Automated Roam Research Weekly Action Export
Every Friday, WebRun opens Roam Research, reads this week's daily notes for blocks tagged as an action item, logs each one to a Google Sheet with the date and linked page, and emails the team a weekly recap so ideas captured in the graph turn into a list someone can actually work from.
How do I turn a week of Roam Research notes into a trackable action list?
WebRun reads your Roam Research daily notes every Friday for blocks tagged as an action item, logs each one to a Google Sheet with its date and source page, and emails the team a weekly recap, so ideas and to-dos captured in the graph over the week end up as a list someone can actually act on.
- Action items tagged during the week end up in one trackable sheet
- The team gets a recap without opening the graph themselves
- Ideas captured in daily notes stop getting lost in the backlinks

Questions, answered
Does WebRun edit my Roam graph?
No. It only reads blocks tagged as an action item. Editing, linking, or removing a block is left entirely to you in Roam Research.
Who gets the weekly recap email?
Only your own team's address list. It never emails anyone outside your organization.
What if the same action item is tagged twice?
WebRun checks the sheet before appending a new row, so a block already logged doesn't get duplicated the next week.
