Create videos from spreadsheet data
Turning spreadsheet data into engaging video content doesn't need to be complicated. All it takes is integrating HeyGen into your workflows. For example, whenever a new lead is added to a Google Sheet, a Zap (that's what we call automated workflows) can make sure that sales teams quickly generate personalized outreach videos. Customer support teams using Airtable or Zapier Tables can similarly convert FAQ records into clear, concise explainer videos, delivering immediate visual solutions to common inquiries and enhancing overall customer satisfaction.
Automating video creation in this way lets you expand your communication efforts without taking up any more of your time. You can consistently deliver personalized content with minimal production overhead, freeing your team to focus on other strategic tasks.

Pro tip: Avoid overwhelming HeyGen with too many video requests at once by adding a Delay by Zapier step. Use the Delay After Queue action to space out video creation requests by 30-60 seconds, especially if you're importing large batches of leads into your spreadsheet. Read our guide to getting started with Delay.

Create videos from form submissions
Collecting user information through forms is a staple of many workflows—from customer surveys and event registrations to lead generation and feedback collection. Integrating HeyGen with your form tools lets you automatically convert these submissions into engaging video content.
For example, marketing teams can make personalized thank-you videos just seconds after a user submits a Typeform entry for an event registration, creating a memorable experience for your event attendees. Similarly, coaches and teachers can leverage Google Forms to instantly produce customized feedback videos for students, enriching the learning experience without extra work. By delegating video production, you can instantly deliver tailored and impactful messages.

Automate alerts and CRM follow-ups
When a video is generated in HeyGen, keeping the right people informed and your systems updated can make all the difference. Zapier makes it easy to trigger notifications and updates as soon as a video is ready, so your team can move quickly and your tools stay aligned.
For example, you can automatically send a Slack message to a shared channel or email a team member when a new video is complete. That way, you can make sure everyone knows exactly when content is available for review or distribution.
You can also use HeyGen video completion events to update records in your customer relationship manager. For instance, when a personalized video is created for a lead or customer, you might update their contact record in HubSpot with the video URL or a tag to indicate they've been sent a video. That makes it easier for sales and support teams to track video engagement and tailor their follow-ups accordingly.
