How to get the URL from Vimeo , so that I can fetch JSON

Question

I have been roaming around https://developer.vimeo.com for quite a time - but I am not getting the API URL to fetch the JSON - so that I can parse it and play Vimeo video on my android app by parsing the data returned as JSON response.

I am not getting the right URL to fetch JSON, after that, I can parse data easily.

Any help how to get the URL from Vimeo to parse the JSON data(I have also created an app and got the uniqueCLIENT IDENTIFIER AND SECRETS.But I am not being able to go to the right place.

or any other ways how to play Vimeo video dynamically on my android app?

**[I could have hardcoded the embedded code for video BUT I am giving dynamic content to my app as the video feeds changes every 1 hour - so parsing JSON is extremely necessary here].

Any idea how can I execute my plan?

Answer 1

Vimeo does not allow direct access to video links to standard user! You definitely GO PRO for that!

Now, To play the video you can use web view to embed the video!

Second, you can use this library to play video: https://github.com/vimeo/vimeo-deeplink-android

Last but not least, https://player.vimeo.com/video/97189640/config

I will not recommend this but a great hack for your problem!
