Automated Yahoo Ads Spend Reporting
Every morning, WebRun signs into Yahoo Advertising, reads yesterday's spend, impressions, clicks, and conversions for each active campaign, compares spend against the daily budget and the 7 day average, posts a short digest to your Slack channel, and pings Telegram when a campaign is pacing past its budget.
How do I get a daily summary of my Yahoo Advertising spend?
WebRun signs into Yahoo Advertising each morning and reads yesterday's spend, impressions, clicks, and conversions per campaign. It compares each against the daily budget and the 7 day average, posts a digest to Slack, and pings Telegram only when a campaign is pacing past its budget.
- Yesterday's spend is in Slack before the first meeting
- Overspending campaigns are flagged the next morning, not at month end
- Zero-spend campaigns get caught as setup problems within a day

WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Can it pause a campaign or change a budget?
No. WebRun only reads your reporting. It never edits a bid, a budget, a creative, or a campaign state. Every change stays a decision you make in the account yourself.
Will it alert me every single morning?
The Slack digest posts daily. The Telegram ping only fires when a campaign is pacing past its budget, so a normal day is a quiet one.
Why does it flag campaigns that spent nothing?
Because a zero-spend day is usually a setup problem, not a saving. Those campaigns are listed separately so you can check targeting, approval state, or funding before another day passes.
