Automated ScreenPal Video Library Index

Every Monday, WebRun opens ScreenPal, lists the videos added since the last run, captures each title, length, share link and view count, writes them into your index sheet in Google Drive, and emails you a short digest of what is new.

In short

How do I keep a searchable index of my ScreenPal videos?

WebRun opens ScreenPal every Monday, lists the videos you recorded that week, and captures each title, length, share link and view count. It writes them into your Google Drive index and emails you a digest, so your video library stays searchable without anyone maintaining a spreadsheet by hand.

  • Every recorded video is findable by title, folder, and link
  • View counts refresh weekly instead of going stale
  • Untitled or unfiled videos get flagged the week they appear

What does WebRun do on every run?

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email my customers or my team?

No. The weekly digest goes to your own inbox only. If you point it at anyone else, WebRun writes the message and leaves it as a Gmail draft for you to approve and send.

Does it change anything inside ScreenPal?

No. WebRun only reads your video library in ScreenPal. Titles, folders, sharing settings, and the videos themselves are left exactly as they are.

What happens to videos already in the index?

They stay put and get a refreshed view count each Monday, so the index shows current numbers instead of the figure from the week you recorded.

Put this on autopilot.
