The 3-step Zap
1
ClosedCast — Video Ready
Trigger when a new video finishes processing
Step #1: Start with a ClosedCast event that confirms the video is ready for the intended audience.
2
Filter by Zapier — Announcement Filter
Continue only for categories, tags, or titles intended for email announcement
Step #2: Do not announce every upload; use explicit rules for the content your mailing list should receive.
3
Mailchimp — Create Campaign or Draft
Map title, summary, audience-safe ClosedCast link, and campaign metadata
Step #3: Populate a Mailchimp announcement workflow with consistent video information for review or sending.
Result
Selected archive updates can flow into a repeatable email-announcement process instead of rebuilding each message from scratch.
