Authentication is required if you're calling a method that modifies data on Vimeo, or you want to access private data. Vimeo offers two methods for authentication: OAuth, and Installed Application Authentication.

OAuth

Vimeo supports the OAuth Core 1.0 Revision A standard. If you use a library besides the ones we provide, make sure they have support for Revision A of the standard.
