# Vimeo Channel API

One channel with the branding, creator and counts you need to list it or judge its reach.

`GET /v1/vimeo/channels/{channel}` takes a channel slug such as `staffpicks` or a numeric id. On `found`, `data.channel` carries `id`, `name`, `description`, `logo`, `badge`, `url`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `creator`, `counts` and `tags` and `categories`. `creator` has the creator id, name and profile URL; `counts` has `videos` and `subscribers`.

Use the channel's `id` or slug with `channels/{channel}/videos` for its videos and `channels/{channel}/subscribers` for its subscriber records. A channel that does not exist, is private or was removed reads `lookupStatus: not_found` with `channel` null.

## FAQ

### How do I name a channel?

Use the slug such as staffpicks or the numeric id. Both resolve to the same channel record.

### Which counts come back?

counts.videos and counts.subscribers. A count Vimeo does not report is null. The channel record also carries the creator, logo, dates, tags and categories.

### How do I get the channel's videos or subscribers?

Use GET /v1/vimeo/channels/{channel}/videos for videos, or GET /v1/vimeo/channels/{channel}/subscribers for subscriber user records.

### How many credits does a channel lookup cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.
