Vimeo API Delete a video


I'm a little bit confused how to delete a video with the new API from Vimeo. I'm succeeded to create an application that uploads with the post function $vimeo->request().

But I have no clue how to delete a video.

The Vimeo API Docs are good but I need some example or a hint. I'm developing in PHP right now so if someone could help me it would be awesome.


Solution

  • To delete a video, you need the Video URI (It will look something like /videos/12345).

    Then you make an authenticated DELETE request against that URI. In the PHP library, it would look like this:

    $vimeo = new Vimeo(YOUR_APPLICATION_ID, YOUR_APPLICATION_SECRET, ACCESS_TOKEN);
    $vimeo->request($uri, array(), 'DELETE');
