Vimeo Block: Support for *Private* Videos

Open Dan-Peck opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Currently, DAKboard supports Public Vimeo Video URLs that have the format:

https://vimeo.com/123456789

Where 123456789 is the video id. However, Vimeo has also introduced the use of an additional hash code that pairs with video id to access private videos via a URL. That format would look more like:

https://vimeo.com/123456789/abc123def456

Where abc123def456 represents the hash code. In this case, the embed URL will then accept an h={hash code} parameter to show the video in the block.


Without this additional parameter, the result will be either:

  • "Sorry this video doesn't exist"
  • Or, "The embed code for this video is not valid."
