How to connect Home Assistant and Vimeo

Step 1: Create a new workflow
Step 2: Add and configure nodes
Step 3: Connect
Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Home Assistant and Vimeo nodes (using the HTTP Request node)

You can find the Home Assistant node in the nodes panel and drag it onto your workflow canvas. To add the Vimeo app to the workflow select the HTTP Request node and use the generic authentication method to make custom API calls to Vimeo. Configure Vimeo and Home Assistant one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.
