      How to connect Vimeo OTT to Databox?

      To connect a Vimeo OTT Account in Databox, go to  Data Source Connections > + New connection. Type Vimeo OTT in the search bar and click on the green Connect button. 

      This will open the   Authorization window, which is where you will be prompted to enter a Name for your Vimeo OTT connection in Databox, e.g. Tory's Vimeo OTT Account.

      Next, enter the  API key from within your Vimeo OTT portal. API keys can be created on the Platforms page of your Vimeo OTT CMS. 

      How much historical data is synced when you first connect Vimeo OTT to Databox?

      When you connect a new Vimeo OTT Data Source in Databox, no historical data is initially synced. 

      Pro Tip: Once your Vimeo OTT Data Source is connected and actively syncing data, we store the data that's collected in our own database. This allows us to accumulate more data over time as more data syncs are made so that you can report on more historical Vimeo OTT data in your Databox reports. Learn more here. 

      What time zone does Vimeo OTT data sync in? 

      Vimeo OTT data is synced in EST. 

      How to access pre-built Vimeo OTT Templates

       
      1. Navigate to Databoards > Public Templates
      2. In the Data Source drop-down list, select  Vimeo OTT
      3. To view a preview of the Template populated with dummy data, click Preview
      4. To pull the Template into your Account and re-populate it with your own Vimeo OTT data, click Use Template
      5. Select the appropriate Vimeo OTT Data Source from the drop-down list to complete the process. The Databoard will be re-populated with data from the selected Vimeo OTT Account and can be found on the  Databoards page

      Pro Tip: Once the Databoard is available on the Databoards page, it is completely disconnected from the public Template. Therefore, you can further customize this Databoard to meet your specific needs using the Designer.
