The Pain of Manual Video Audits
Today, checking your video library means logging into Vimeo and navigating through dozens of showcases and project folders. You manually click 'View Details' for every file to check the metadata—duration, privacy status, last updated date. It’s tedious, clicking tab after tab until you find what you need.
With this MCP, you just ask your agent to audit it all. It automatically compiles a list of videos and gathers their full details using `get_video` for every asset in the required folders. You get an instant report without touching a dashboard.
Using `update_video` Gives You Control Over Content Life Cycles
The manual steps that go away are updating descriptions and titles across multiple files. Instead of opening the video, copying the new text, pasting it in the sidebar, and hitting save—you do none of that.
You tell your agent to update 50 videos' metadata at once. The job is done. It’s all about centralized control.
What you can do with this MCP connector
Connecting Vimeo gives your AI client total control over your video asset library. Instead of manually clicking through dashboards to check on content, your agent handles the whole workflow. You can ask it to list all videos in a specific folder or find out exactly how many views a showcase has gathered since last week.
Need to clean up old projects? Your agent can audit every item and then use the delete_video tool to remove unneeded files. The platform runs securely on Vinkius, which uses a zero-trust proxy for all credential handling, so your access tokens never sit on disk. This means you're performing complex operations—like combining a search query with a folder audit—without ever compromising security.
Your agent acts as an instant video operator: it can browse project folders using list_folders, list every showcase using list_showcases, and retrieve detailed data, like duration or privacy settings, for any single video. It even lets you search public videos across the platform to find inspiration or relevant community content.

How Vimeo MCP Works
- 1 Subscribe to this MCP and provide your Vimeo Access Token.
- 2 Connect that single credential through your AI client (like Cursor or Claude).
- 3 Ask your agent a question, like 'List all videos in the Marketing folder,' and get the data back.
The bottom line is you tell your agent what video audit you need, and it executes the complex sequence of API calls for you.
Who Is Vimeo MCP For?
Anyone who manages content libraries or marketing assets. This is for the ops engineer tired of clicking through dozens of dashboards just to confirm a file's metadata, or the video editor needing fast access to project structure details.
Needs to verify if new videos are correctly added to showcases and folders before launch day.
Requires rapid audits of the entire video library, checking metadata like duration and plays across multiple projects.
Performs large-scale cleanup operations, locating and deleting old or orphaned content without manual logins.
What Changes When You Connect
- Instead of clicking through folder structures to check content, you can use
list_videoscombined withget_videoto audit metadata (like plays or duration) across hundreds of files instantly. - Maintain organization by using
list_foldersandlist_showcases. Your agent gives you a full picture of your project structure without ever requiring manual navigation. - When content is finished, use
delete_videoto remove retired assets. You don't have to manually track down old files that need cleanup. - Keep records current using
update_video. Need to change a video title or description across multiple projects? The agent handles the updates in one prompt. - Find inspiration fast. Use
search_videosto query public content, keeping your creative work informed by relevant community examples.
Real-World Use Cases
Quarterly Content Audit
The Ops Admin needs to check every video's performance and metadata. They ask the agent to list_videos, then loop through them using get_video to compile a report on all videos older than 6 months that haven't been viewed.
Project Cleanup
The team finished a campaign and left dozens of draft files. The agent lists the project folders using list_folders, identifies outdated content, and uses delete_video to clear out the clutter.
Cross-Platform Promotion Check
The marketer needs to ensure a new video was added everywhere. They check if the video appears in specific showcases using list_showcases, and then use get_video on each showcase's contents.
Metadata Correction
A client provided updated branding guidelines, requiring title changes across 50 videos. Instead of logging in fifty times, the agent uses update_video with all new descriptions and titles simultaneously.
The Tradeoffs
Assuming single-step actions
Trying to get a full report on 100 videos by asking the agent simply to 'show me stats.' This requires multiple steps.
→
You need to combine tools. First, run list_videos to get all IDs; then, pass those IDs to get_video in one call for a full metadata dump.
Ignoring content governance
Keeping thousands of old, unneeded videos floating around just because they're hard to find. This slows down the entire library.
→
Use list_videos to identify candidates, then use get_video to verify if they are needed before running delete_video.
Over-reliance on search alone
Searching for a video by topic when the file is actually in an obscure project folder. The public search fails.
→
Start with list_folders to narrow down the location, then use list_videos within that specific folder.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if your primary workflow involves managing structured assets: folders, showcases, and individual video metadata. It's ideal for content teams needing granular control over their digital library structure. Don't use it if all you need is basic media hosting or simple file storage; a general file system tool will cover that better. If you only care about public visibility and not the internal project organization, search_videos is enough, but you lose the audit trail of your private projects. This MCP gives you both.
Common Questions About Vimeo MCP
How can I get a list of my projects using the `list_folders` tool? +
The agent runs list_folders and returns every project folder ID. This allows you to then target specific folders for video audits or updates.
Can I delete videos using the `delete_video` tool? +
Yes, that's one of its core functions. You just need to reference the exact ID of the video you want removed from your account.
Does `get_video` provide performance stats? +
Yep. It pulls detailed metadata, including things like plays and viewership statistics, which is key for marketing audits.
How does the MCP handle my access token when I use `update_video`? +
The whole process runs securely on Vinkius. It uses a zero-trust proxy to pass your credentials only during transit, meaning they never sit on disk.
How do I check my current user permissions before running actions like `list_groups`? +
Run the get_me tool. This instantly verifies your account's connected status and provides detailed scope information. You can confirm that your agent has the necessary rights for all subsequent operations.
When using `list_videos`, what metadata fields are available for each video record? +
The tool retrieves deep details, including duration, plays count, and privacy settings. You can prompt your agent to filter or sort these results based on criteria like upload date or visibility status.
If I query a large number of public videos using `search_videos`, are there rate limits? +
Vinkius handles API throttling automatically. If you exceed the rate limit, your agent receives an explicit error code detailing when to retry the search. This keeps your workflow running smoothly.
How do I map out which assets belong together using `list_showcases`? +
The output for list_showcases includes all associated video IDs and metadata tags. Your agent can use this data to precisely catalog content belonging to a specific project album or showcase.
