@websemantics I believe this is happening because the library does not specify a version accept header. If no version accept header is specified, the Vimeo API will use an application's individual default version -- specified on the app's management page at https://developer.vimeo.com/apps.

As a quick and dirty fix, you should specify application/vnd.vimeo.*+json;version=3.2 in the request header to use the (now-deprecated) resumable/streaming put upload method.

A long-term fix would be to specify version=3.4 and update the library to use the open-source tus upload method.

In file vimeo-uploader.js
me.prototype.upload = function() {
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest()
xhr.open(this.httpMethod, this.url, true)
xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + this.token)
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json')

    xhr.setRequestHeader('Accept', 'application/vnd.vimeo.*+json;version=3.2') <-- Add line

I stumbled upon this problem and found out something related.

If you want to upgrade to the latest 3.4 API, there's a current upload file feature on PR here: chore: add upload of a blob file.

When creating live event, I'm getting this error:

https://developer.vimeo.com/api/reference/live#create_live_event

{
    "error": "Something strange occurred. Please try again.",
    "link": null,
    "developer_message": "The specified resource doesn't exist.",
    "error_code": 5000
}

Any one have any idea about this?
