# Smartlead - Auto-Send Videos to New Leads

> Learn how to automatically create AI-personalized Sendspark videos for Smartlead leads using agentic workflows and campaign triggers.

This integration automatically creates AI-personalized Sendspark videos when leads enter your Smartlead sequences. Build a Sendspark Agentic Workflow triggered by "Smartlead: Lead moved to specified status," set the status to In Progress, then add a Create Dynamic Video step and map the lead fields — including email — so each new lead gets their own video.

## Key takeaways

* The workflow auto-generates a personalized video whenever a lead moves to a chosen status in your Smartlead campaign.
* Add your Sendspark video placeholder to the **2nd Smartlead email or a later step**, so the video has time to generate before it sends.
* Trigger the Sendspark Agentic Workflow with **"Smartlead: Lead moved to specified status,"** set to the **In Progress** status.
* In the Create Dynamic Video step, map the lead fields and be sure to **map the email field** — it matches the right video to the right lead.

In this article, you'll learn how to automatically create AI-personalized videos for leads when they get added into Smartlead sequences.

## How to Create Sendspark Videos When Leads Get Added to Smartlead Campaign

## 1. Create a Dynamic Video Campaign in Sendspark

Start by creating your [dynamic video campaign](/dynamic-videos-make-videos-with-ai-introductions) in Sendspark. This will be the template you use to create all of the personalized videos.

## 2. Create an Email Campaign in Smartlead

Create your email campaign in Smartlead, and add your Sendspark video placeholder where you want your video to appear.

Note that you will have to add this to the 2nd email in Smartlead, or a later step, to ensure that the video has enough time to generate before you send off the video email.

## 3. Create an Agentic Workflow in Sendspark

Go to the [Agentic Workflow](https://sendspark.com/agentic-workflows) section of Sendspark and **create a new automation**.

## 4. Use “Smartlead: Lead moved to specified status" as the Trigger

For your trigger, select **Smartlead** and then **Lead moved to specified status**

Connect your Smartlead account, and then **specify the Smartlead email campaign** that you're using here.
