# Salesforce Integration - Record Videos

> Learn how to record and share videos directly in Salesforce emails using Sendspark's instant integration and Chrome extension.

With the Salesforce Instant Integration, you can record and insert videos right from your Salesforce compose window. Install the Sendspark Chrome extension, then click the Sendspark icon that appears at the bottom of any Salesforce compose email to record a new video, add your last recording, or insert one from your library. Your video is sent as an animated GIF that links to a branded landing page.

## Key takeaways

* Once the Sendspark Chrome extension is installed, a Sendspark icon appears at the bottom of every Salesforce compose email.
* From that icon you can record a new video, add your last recording, or open your video library and insert an existing video.
* Recording happens in a preview that pops up over Salesforce, so you never leave the page. For Salesforce outreach, camera-only (selfie) recording is the most common choice.
* Videos are inserted as an animated GIF. The landing page text and call-to-action come from the template you add, and the logo and colors come from your workspace settings.

## How to record and share a video in Salesforce

1. Install the Sendspark Chrome extension. A Sendspark icon then appears at the bottom of every Salesforce compose email.
2. Click the Sendspark icon. You can **record a new video**, **add your last recording**, or **view your video library** and insert an existing video.
3. To record, click **Record New Video**. A preview pops up right above Salesforce, so you stay in your workflow.
4. Choose your recording type: a selfie (camera-only) video, your screen, or your face over your screen. For Salesforce outreach, camera-only is almost always the right choice.
5. (Optional) Click the **camera effects** icon to blur or replace your background, or to touch up your appearance. Your choices are saved for future videos.
6. Click the red button, wait for the countdown, and record your message. Click the button again to finish.
7. In the modal that appears, title your video and, if you like, do light trimming, add another video to stitch to it, or add a **template** to include a call-to-action or follow-up items.
8. Click **Insert Video** to place the video in your Salesforce email, then add any text you want around it.
9. When the recipient clicks the video, it opens on a landing page in a new tab. The text and call-to-action come from your template, and the logo and colors come from your workspace settings, so set up your branding when you get started.
