🎬 Create personalized welcome videos for new signups with Zvid and SMTP
⚡ 0 views · 🎬 Content Creation & Video
Description
Quick overview
Create a branded welcome video for each new signup. Receive signup details by webhook or use a manual sample, render with Zvid, return the video URL and editor link, and optionally send an SMTP email.
How it works
- Receive signup details by POST webhook or run the sample manually.
- Load branding, onboarding cards and CTA settings from Config.
- Build the landscape welcome video and validate its credit quote using Zvid nodes.
- Save an editable draft and collect its editor link.
- With dryRun=true, return the draft and quote without rendering.
- By default, render the MP4 and poll until completion or timeout.
- Return the result, optionally email it, and preview completed media in Watch video.
Setup
- Install @zvid/n8n-nodes-zvid from Settings → Community nodes before credentials. A workspace owner/admin may need to install it.
- Create a Zvid API credential with a key from https://app.zvid.io/api-keys and Base URL https://api.zvid.io. Select it on every Zvid node.
- Customize Config and test Sample signup. For webhooks, POST firstName with optional plan, company and email; allow time for rendering.
- Email is disabled by default. Configure SMTP, emailFrom and sendEmail=true to enable delivery.
- The default dryRun=false spends Zvid render credits. Use true for a draft and quote. Test manually before activating.
Requirements
- Self-hosted n8n with community nodes enabled, a Zvid account with credits, and optional SMTP credentials.
Customization
- Adjust brand colors, onboarding cards, CTA, music and timings in Config.
