I'm trying to delete my vimeo video by using AJAX request but its always returning 204 status code, and video is not deleting from account. Here is code example.
$(".js-delete").click(function(){
var videoID = $(this).data("target");// /videos/2332
$.ajax({
type: "post",
url: "https://api.vimeo.com/me/videos",
headers: {
"Authorization": "bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
},
data: {
url: "https://api.vimeo.com/me"+videoID,
method: "DELETE"
},
dataType: "json"
success: function(response){
console.log(response); //will print the whole JSON
},
error: function(){
console.log('Request Failed.');
}
});
});
Can anyone please suggest some changes required for this?
Thanks in advance
You are sending
POST
https://api.vimeo.com/me/videos
header
Bearer <token>
(uppercase B), not bearer <token>
.But according to the Vimeo API docs to Delete a Video, the request should be
DELETE https://api.vimeo.com/videos/{video_id}
with a note:
This method requires a token with the "delete" scope.
A jQuery ajax request should look something like this if the bearer token is correct:
$(".js-delete").click(function(){
var videoID = $(this).data("target");// /videos/2332
$.ajax({
type: 'DELETE',
url: 'https://api.vimeo.com/videos/' + videoID,
headers: {
"Authorization": "Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
},
success: function(response){
console.log(response); //will print the whole JSON
},
error: function(){
console.log('Request Failed.');
}
});
});
You should be able to test this request using https://www.getpostman.com/ to verify the request and bearer token works outside of your CF app.
