It's good. I applied my video links manually, but correct way to apply my video links dynamic. I want to get my vimeo video urls in based api keys.

Answer 1

It appears you're using the old Simple API (with this url format: http://vimeo.com/api/v2/video/{$video_id}.json) which is no longer supported by Vimeo.
That said, if your videos are embeddable, you'll likely be better off using oEmbed to get the specified metadata (provider, title, description, thumbnail, video). Vimeo's oEmbed documentation is found here: https://developer.vimeo.com/apis/oembed
Regarding the video and embed_video values you're generating, it's best practice to get the video link and embed code exactly from the API. Because you're generating these values on your own, any changes we make to the URL structure may break your links. For example, unlisted videos have an additional hash after the numerical video_id that your code does not account for.
I hope this information helps!
