Vimeo is a popular social video platform that lets users host, edit, and stream videos in the browser or mobile applications. This course introduces the Vimeo API, which allows users to manage their channels, videos, and communities through various endpoints. After generating your credentials with Vimeo, you’ll learn Vimeo’s categorization system and how to request videos, channels, or groups by category. You’ll then learn how to search and edit user preferences based on categories and return videos across categories. You’ll then manage Vimeo channels, subscriptions, and tags before directly searching for videos and related content. Finally, you’ll perform searches and manage Vimeo Groups using the API. You’ll wrap up with a functional Vimeo application in Django. By the end of this course, you’ll have functional mastery of the Vimeo platform and be prepared to create social video environments using the Vimeo API.
