Automated Whalesync Sync Error Alerts

Every hour, WebRun opens Whalesync, checks each sync connection for errors or field conflicts, files a Trello card with the affected records for each one, and pings the ops owner on WhatsApp so a broken sync gets fixed before more records fall out of step.

In short

How do I get alerted when a Whalesync connection errors out?

WebRun checks every Whalesync connection every hour for errors or field conflicts. It files a Trello card with the connection and affected records, then messages your ops owner on WhatsApp with a link to the card, so a broken sync gets fixed before more records drift out of step between your tools.

  • Sync errors get flagged within the hour instead of days later
  • Every error is tracked on one Trello board with affected records
  • Repeat errors stand out instead of getting buried in new cards

Questions, answered

Does it fix the sync error or reconnect anything itself?

No. It only detects the error, files the Trello card, and alerts the ops owner. Reconnecting or fixing the sync is always a human decision.

Who gets messaged on WhatsApp?

Only the ops owner's number your team has on file. It is never sent to a customer or anyone outside your team.

What if the same connection keeps erroring?

Repeat errors from the same connection are moved to the top of the Trello board so they stand out instead of getting buried under new cards.
