Automated TextNow Missed Call and Text Digests

Every morning, WebRun checks your TextNow line for missed calls and new texts since the last check, posts a digest to Slack, and cross-posts to Telegram anything containing an urgent keyword so it doesn't wait for someone to open Slack.

In short

How do I get a daily digest of missed TextNow calls and texts?

WebRun checks your TextNow line every morning for missed calls and new texts, posting a digest to Slack covering everything since the last check. Anything containing an urgent keyword gets cross-posted to Telegram immediately instead of waiting, so time-sensitive messages reach someone fast while routine activity stays in the regular morning digest.

  • Missed calls and texts are summarized every morning
  • Urgent messages reach someone within minutes, not hours
  • Routine activity stays out of the urgent alert channel

Questions, answered

Does WebRun call or text anyone back?

No. It only reads missed calls and texts and reports them. Calling or texting someone back is still done by your team.

What counts as urgent?

Text content containing clear urgency keywords such as asap or emergency. Those get posted to Telegram immediately instead of waiting for the morning digest.

Will I get a Telegram alert every day even if nothing is urgent?

No. Telegram only gets a post when something is actually flagged urgent, so it stays a real signal, not routine noise.
