Automated Zello User Onboarding Checks
Every morning, WebRun opens your Zello Work network, checks each recently added user against your onboarding checklist covering channel membership, profile name, and first sign-in, posts the outstanding items to your operations channel in Slack, and sends the supervisor group in Microsoft Teams the names of anyone still not radio-ready.
How do I make sure new field staff are set up on Zello before their shift?
WebRun checks your Zello Work network every morning for users added in the last week, verifying display name, channel membership, and first sign-in against your onboarding checklist. It posts the outstanding items to Slack and tells supervisors in Microsoft Teams who is not radio-ready before the shift starts.
- New workers are reachable on the radio from their first shift
- Accounts that were created but never used are caught within a day
- Supervisors get the gap list before the shift, not during it

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it add users to channels or change permissions?
No. WebRun reads the network setup and reports the gaps. Adding a user to a channel, changing a role, or removing an account is always done by an administrator in Zello.
Does it send voice messages or alerts over the radio?
No. It never transmits on a channel, sends a Zello message, or contacts a worker. Everything it reports goes to your internal Slack and Microsoft Teams channels.
How does it know which channels a role needs?
You set the channel list per role once, and WebRun compares each new user against the list for their role every morning until the setup is complete.
