New-video emails

Review automatic video announcements, limits, quiet hours and skipped uploads.

Prepare before enabling

Connect YouTube and Resend and complete the marketing requirements first. Open Broadcasts → New-video emails. The switch starts off: enabling a template or connecting a channel is not permission to email your list automatically.

Choose draft mode while evaluating the generated announcement. Automatic mode can send real email, so turn it on only after reviewing the content and timing. Videos published before the time you enabled the feature are not retroactively emailed.

Choose content and timing

Set the subject and intro, whether to include Shorts, the daily and weekly maximums and quiet hours. Quiet hours use your website timezone. Review the optional product P.S. and chosen product so an announcement does not promote an unavailable offer.

The daily and weekly announcement limits are not the same as the number of recipient emails or your Resend allowance. One video announcement can generate many individual messages. The screen shows this month's email activity to help you evaluate provider usage.

Read each video's outcome

The screen lists detected videos and whether each became sent, queued for a time, draft or skipped with a reason. A detected upload is not a guaranteed send. Quiet hours, caps, disabled state, Shorts choices, consent and provider problems can all change the outcome.

In draft mode, open the resulting draft in Broadcasts, review its recipient selection and content, then deliberately send or schedule it if appropriate. Do not assume the draft was sent merely because the video appears in the list.

Stop the automation

Turning the switch off stops work that has not gone out: queued video broadcasts become drafts, and pending checks are skipped. Those drafts remain visible and can be sent manually. It cannot recall messages already delivered.

Troubleshooting

Check the specific video's status first, then the channel connection, published time, quiet hours, announcement caps and Resend state. An imported historical video on your Videos page is not evidence that it should receive a new announcement. See Broadcasts for delivery statistics and Audience and consent for recipient eligibility.
