How can I get videos recorded by the plugin (Recorder Plugin) to be sent by email after being recorded?

I have an app in development that would allow wedding guests to record personalized video messages for the bride and groom. When accessing the page, users choose the period within which they want the bride and groom to receive their messages (3 months, 1 year, or 2 years). They are then directed to video message recording, where they can send a video of up to 1 minute. Messages are sent to the bride and groom’s email according to the chosen deadline.

Hi again @contatoedersonsantos,

Thank you once again for your message and for using the Video Recorder plugin.

It looks like you’re trying to implement a really special feature for your wedding app!

First, you should design a user interface where guests can select when they want their message to be delivered (3 months, 1 year, or 2 years). You can store this selection in your database associated with the user and the video message.

After recording videos you should upload the video to your app’s database or an online storage service. Along with the video, you should also save details like who sent it, the email address of the bride and groom, and when it should be sent.

For more examples and workflows, I’d suggest taking a peek at Zeroqode’s Video Recorder Plugin demo page. You might find some workflows there that are pretty close to what you have in mind.

Also, diving into Bubble’s manual can give you a solid grasp on setting up workflows, scheduling emails, and managing video content. It’s packed with helpful tips and instructions that could really make a difference in your project.

If you are looking for a Bubble developer, I’d recommend checking on the Bubble forum Help section.

If you have other questions about Zeroqode plugins, feel free to drop me a message. I’m here to help!

Best regards,
Daniel

Hello! Thanks for the answer, but I still have a question:

I’ve made a lot of progress in my project, but I’m having trouble knowing how to save this recording to the user’s data in the database after the recording is finished.

Hello @contatoedersonsantos!

Glad that my answer helped you.

After the video recording is finished, you can capture this event to trigger the necessary actions in Bubble. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. In your Bubble editor, go to the Workflow section.

  2. Create a new workflow that starts with the event “When A Video Recorder Recording Finished” (as highlighted in the screenshot).

  3. Within this workflow, add an action to “Make changes to a thing” – in this scenario, ‘thing’ could refer to the User or another datatype where you wish to save the video.

  4. Choose what you want to change, which would be the field you’ve designated to store the video file or link.

  5. Use the dynamic data from the Video Recorder element that holds the video file or its URL as the value to save.

This event will allow you to save the recording to the current user’s data once the recording is complete.

Additionally, I highly recommend familiarizing yourself with Bubble’s database operations for a better understanding of creating, saving, and deleting data. This knowledge will help you manage your app’s data effectively. Here’s a useful resource to get you started: Bubble Manual - Creating, Saving, and Deleting Data.

I​f you have additional questions don’t hesitate to ask!

Have a good weekend! :slightly_smiling_face:
