Set video privacy
Change who can watch a video and where it can be embedded.
MCP tool vimeo_write → set_video_privacy
write Confirm
Sets the viewing privacy and optionally the embed rule. Privacy is public, unlisted, password, embed_only or private; unlisted, password and embed_only need a paid plan. Embed is anywhere, nowhere or domains. A private video cannot play when embedded elsewhere. A public video appears in search engines and on your profile. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
