Flag over-shared OneDrive files before they become a problem

Every morning, WebRun opens OneDrive, scans recently shared files and folders for anyone-with-the-link or public access, posts a review digest to Slack, and pings the file owner on Telegram so risky shares get a second look.

In short

How do I find OneDrive files that are shared too widely?

WebRun scans OneDrive every morning for files shared with anyone-with-the-link or shared outside your organization, and posts a review digest to Slack. For anything over-shared 30 days or more, it pings the file owner directly on Telegram, so risky links get a human review instead of sitting open indefinitely.

  • Public and external links get caught the same week they are created
  • File owners are pinged directly about the oldest over-shares
  • Nothing gets unshared without a human decision

Questions, answered

Will WebRun remove access or unshare a file?

No. It only flags over-shared files in Slack and Telegram. Changing or revoking access is always a person's call.

What counts as over-shared?

Files set to anyone-with-the-link, or shared outside your organization, especially ones that have sat that way for 30 days or more.

Does it check every folder in the account?

It checks recently shared files and folders each run, so a newly created public link is caught quickly rather than months later.

Put this on autopilot.
