Automated Sendcloud Shipment Exception Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens Sendcloud, checks tracking status across active shipments, saves a report of anything stuck in transit or flagged as a carrier exception to Google Drive, and posts a Slack alert to the fulfillment team so a stuck package gets chased the same day.

In short

How do I catch stuck Sendcloud shipments before customers complain?

WebRun checks Sendcloud every morning for shipments stuck in transit or flagged as a carrier exception. It saves a report to Google Drive and posts a Slack alert to the fulfillment team with the order number and carrier for each, so a stuck package gets chased the same day instead of surfacing in a customer complaint.

  • Stuck shipments get flagged the same morning they stall
  • Every exception has a filed report instead of a lost tracking tab
  • Urgent delays over 5 days get called out separately

Questions, answered

Does it contact the carrier or the customer?

No. WebRun only reads tracking status from Sendcloud and reports it internally. Contacting the carrier or the customer about a delay stays with your team.

Does it reship or refund an order?

No. WebRun only flags the exception. Any decision to reship, refund, or replace an order is made by your team.

What counts as stuck?

A shipment with no tracking movement for 3 or more days, or one the carrier has already flagged as an exception.
