Import from Vimeo
Is there a way to import videos from Vimeo? I would like to backup my videos to DropBox, in batch or automatically, if possible.
Hey BEstes, thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!
I'm not aware of an integration or 3rd party app that could help with this, so you'll need to download your files from Vimeo and upload them to Dropbox manually.
That said, note that I'll keep this thread open as there might be a Vimeo user around our Community who could jump in and help or offer their own insights on this.
I know it's not much, but I hope this helps!

Thank you! Vimeo says they "[do] not allow sending of videos through hard drives or exporting to storage sites such as Dropbox/Google Drive". Like you said, I would need to download each video individually, then upload them to DropBox. I have a lot of videos in Vimeo that would take forever to do that. But, I may have to do it no matter. Thanks, again, for the reply.
- KeropioNew member | Level 2It’s hard to admit it, but it seems Vimeo doesn’t want you to massively download your own videos once you discover their poor customer service and their unstable terms. If you wanna leave them, it will take you days to save years of work you have unsafely stored up there. Good luck!
