Vimeo API

Vimeo offers a simple API and a so called Advanced API. The Simple API is a very simple interface to access lots of public data from Vimeo. You can get data via JSON, XML, and serialized PHP. You do not need a to register your application to use the Simple API.

The Advanced API is more complicated than the Simple API, but you can get a lot more data from it. You will need to register your application to use the Advanced API. If you want to test out the Advanced API, head over to the Sandbox.

They also offer a service to embed videos in your website. oEmbed is an open standard for embedding videos or images into a website. You can use the Vimeo URL of any video to easily get the embed code for that video. You do not need to register your application to use oEmbed.
