This feature requires an Enterprise plan on Vimeo OTT.
Unlike other major application platforms, if you have a VIZIO app included with your OTT Enterprise account, you will not be directly responsible for creating your own developer account. Instead, the VIZIO team will create a developer account (or "developer portal") on your behalf and grant you and your team access.

How is my developer portal opened?
During onboarding, the Vimeo Apps team will send an introductory email on your behalf to VIZIO containing the required information about your application, which is a requirement for the developer portal to be provisioned. You and your team will be included on this email chain along with your Vimeo Account Team.
Within ~7-10 business days, the VIZIO Team will create a developer portal for you and send an email confirmation from "developers@vizio.com." You will need to log in to the developer portal and set a password for your account.
How can I access my VIZIO developer portal?
The VIZIO developer portal can be accessed at https://developer.vizio.com/
This URL is only accessible from within the United States. If you are currently located outside of the United States, you will need to use a VPN service in order to access the developer portal.
Once you access your developer portal, you will need to set a password for your account. Once you've done that, follow up with your Vimeo Implementation Manager, who will walk you through the next steps.
What if I were to leave Vimeo?
Although Vimeo facilitates the creation of your developer portal, you are still the account owner. In the unlikely case that you leave the Vimeo platform, the VIZIO application would still be listed within your account.
