# Expandi — Send Personalized Videos at Scale

> Learn how to send personalized videos at scale using Expandi integration with step-by-step setup and LinkedIn automation tips.

This article covers the older Expandi flow. Sendspark now has a native Expandi integration, so start with the [updated article here](/expandi-integration-ai-personalized-videos). In the original flow you record one video with personalization tokens, click Share, select Expandi, and paste it into your Expandi message so each contact gets an auto-personalized video in your LinkedIn automation.

## Key takeaways

* Sendspark now has a native Expandi integration; the [updated article](/expandi-integration-ai-personalized-videos) is the current reference for this workflow.
* The integration lets you create one video and automatically personalize it for each contact you reach out to via Expandi LinkedIn automation.
* After recording or uploading, click **Share**, select **Expandi** (use [modify the share modal](/how-to-modify-shortcuts-on-share-modal) if you don't see it), and paste into your Expandi message. A warning about personalization fields on Expandi is expected.
* Recipients only see the video preview if they've accepted your LinkedIn connection or InMail request, so use videos as a follow-up rather than in connection requests.

This article is old! We have a native integration with Expandi now. Please navigate to this article to see the latest. Please see the [updated article here](/expandi-integration-ai-personalized-videos).

## Note About Sending Videos on LinkedIn

In order for your recipient to see the preview of your video, and not just a link, they must have either (A) accepted your LinkedIn request, or (B) accepted your InMail request.

For this reason, we do NOT recommend sending videos in connection requests. **Videos are better used as a follow up message, after you are already connected.**
