What This Workflow Does

Manually copying information from video interviews, screening calls, or interactive forms into a spreadsheet is a tedious and error-prone task. It creates data silos, delays follow-ups, and means valuable context from video responses is often lost. This automation solves that by creating a seamless bridge between VideoAsk, a powerful interactive video platform, and Airtable, a flexible database.

Every time a candidate, lead, or customer completes your VideoAsk, this workflow triggers instantly. It captures all submitted data—including text answers, uploaded video files, and audio responses—and creates a comprehensive, searchable record in your designated Airtable base. This transforms a manual administrative chore into a fully automated data pipeline, ensuring your team has immediate, organized access to rich prospect information.

How It Works

The workflow acts as an intelligent data router, listening for new submissions and formatting them perfectly for your database.

Step 1: Trigger on New VideoAsk Response

The automation is initiated the moment a new response is submitted in your connected VideoAsk account. Make.com detects this new event instantly, pulling in the entire response payload.

Step 2: Parse and Structure Response Data

The workflow intelligently processes the incoming data. It separates text answers from media files (video/audio), handling different question types and formatting the information into a clean, structured dataset ready for Airtable.

Pro tip: Use this step to filter or score responses. You can add a simple module to check for keywords in answers (like "urgent" or "budget approved") and add a "Priority" flag to the record before it reaches Airtable.

Step 3: Create a Rich Record in Airtable

The processed data is then sent to your specified Airtable base and table. The workflow maps each VideoAsk question to a corresponding Airtable field, creating a new record. Crucially, it also uploads and attaches any video or audio files, storing them as clickable links within the record.

Who This Is For

This automation is a game-changer for any professional or team that relies on video interactions to gather information. Recruiters and HR teams can automate candidate screening, instantly populating their talent pipeline with video interviews. Coaches, consultants, and service providers can streamline client intake forms, capturing needs and preferences directly into their project management base. Marketers and sales teams can qualify leads from interactive video ads or surveys, ensuring hot prospects are logged and followed up on immediately.

What You'll Need

  1. A Make.com account (free tier available).
  2. An active VideoAsk account with a form or interview you want to connect.
  3. An Airtable account with a base and table ready to receive the data. Ensure you have created the necessary text and attachment fields to match your VideoAsk questions.
  4. (Optional) A basic understanding of your data flow—know which VideoAsk questions you want to capture and where they should go in Airtable.
