Authentication

Vimeo uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Vimeo account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Vimeo and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Vimeo API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
