When you end a live event, the URL of each archive from that event will include a unique video ID, which is different from the general event ID. This allows for differentiating the individual videos within an event series after they are no longer live.
Keep this in mind when sharing links to your event versus a specific archive from that event.
- When your recurring live event is streaming live, it will keep the same URL in the format of:
- https://vimeo.com/event/xxxxxx
- The xxxx represents an event ID, which is different from a video ID.
- https://vimeo.com/event/xxxxxx
- After a stream belonging to a recurring event series ends, it will archive and the archived video will then have its unique URL with a unique video ID in the format of:
- https://vimeo.com/xxxxxxx
When you share the general link to your event page on Vimeo, viewers can see past recordings of that event using the arrow buttons within the upper right corner of the player. Note that this only appears to viewers if you enable Playlist in the live event player settings.
If you want to share one specific archive from an event:
- Navigate to your library.
- Locate the video within the library. It will have the same title as the event. Note that archives are not stored in the Live Events folder.
- Select the video to enter the video settings page.
- Select the Share button in the upper right corner.
