Generate an API key on Vimeo OTT

If you opt for API integration, you will need to generate an API key. 

⚠️Note: API keys are associated with the site Owner. Switching the site Owner will disable API keys, and you'll need to generate a new API key. 

To create an API key: 

  1. In the Admin Dashboard, click Manage > Platforms.

⚠️Note: Be sure to copy your private key and save it somewhere safe for future reference. Your private key will not be saved on Vimeo OTT.
