Automated Sked Social Failed Post Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens Sked Social, checks the publishing queue for any auto-post that failed to go out as scheduled, texts you through Twilio the moment one fails, and saves a weekly performance report of successful posts to Google Drive.
How do I know when a Sked Social auto-post fails to publish?
WebRun checks Sked Social's publishing queue every hour for any auto-post that failed to go out, texts you through Twilio the moment one fails with the reason given, and saves a weekly performance report to Google Drive. It never retries a failed post itself, so fixing the connection stays your call.
- A failed auto-post gets caught within the hour, not days later
- You know the exact reason a post failed, not just that it did
- A weekly performance history builds automatically in Drive

Questions, answered
Does WebRun retry a failed post automatically?
No. It only detects and alerts you to the failure. Reconnecting an account or reposting is still something you do yourself.
Why do auto-posts fail?
Usually an expired account connection or a platform rejecting the content. The Twilio text includes the reason Sked Social gives, so you know what to fix.
Is the weekly report just about failures?
No. It's a broader performance report of successfully published posts, saved to Drive alongside prior weeks so you can track engagement over time.
