Getting view notifications in Salesloft
When a contact watches a video and becomes an identified viewer, Vidyard sends real-time view notifications to Salesloft so that you can prioritize and follow-up with engaged contacts.
To make sure a contact is identified, you can send a video using the Vidyard app in Salesloft.
You’ll find Vidyard view notifications in 2 locations in Salesloft:
- A note in the activity feed of the person who watched the video
- A notification in your Live Feed
Activity feed notifications
When a contact in Salesloft watches a video, you’ll receive a view notification as a note in their activity feed.
A notification is sent for each time the person watches the video from the beginning.
- Select People from the main menu, then click on a person to open their profile
- Look for the “Vidyard View” note in their Activity feed
- Select the note for more details, including:
- The title of the video
- A link to the video in your Vidyard account
Live Feed notifications
When a contact in Salesloft watches a video, we’ll also send a view notification to the Salesloft Live Feed.
Open your Live Feed in the top corner of Salesloft. The notification indicates who watched the video, the video title, and a link to the video in Vidyard.
Because more than 1 user in Salesloft may be working the same person, we use the following logic to determine who gets the Live Feed notification:
| Priority (start with first, if none move to second, etc…) | Who gets the Live Feed notification? |
| First | The user who last contacted the person |
| Second | From the most recent cadence applied to the person:
|
| Third | From the last cadence applied to the person where a user completed a step:
|
| Fourth | The owner of the person’s profile in Salesloft |
