title: Vimeo API & Privacy: which settings allow video to be visible from a mobile app?
body: <h2>Use case</h2>
  
  <p>We need to upload video on app dev account on Vimeo, not on 3rd party owned account.</p>
  
  <p>We need the video to be totally invisible and not searchable.</p>
  
  <p>We need the video to be embeddable in some domains (this part works even with <code>privacy.view</code> set as <code>hidden</code>)</p>
  
  <p>We need a mobile app (ios and android) to play the videos (when app+our api server authorize the user).</p>
  
  <h2>From the doc</h2>
  
  <p>Field: <code>privacy.view</code>. These are the allowed settings from <a href="https://developer.vimeo.com/api/reference/videos#edit_video" rel="nofollow noreferrer">official doc</a></p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><code>anybody</code> [NO: my video cannot be public]</li>
  <li><code>contacts</code> </li>
  <li><code>disable</code> [this is equivalent to the UI setitng 'hidden from Vimeo', I cannot use this because from mobile app video will be NOT visible]</li>
  <li><code>nobody</code> </li>
  <li><code>password</code> [cannot use this because we don't want user to insert a password]</li>
  <li><code>unlisted</code> </li>
  <li><code>users</code></li>
  </ul>
  
  <h2>Question</h2>
  
  <p>I cannot use some of the previous as stated in the listing. Which of the remaining settings allow an user from a mobile app to see the video but keep anyway reserved the video? Important is that video is not listed when an user open our vimeo account and must not be searchable.</p>

    <p>Side note: I ask to community here because Vimeo's developers gave us bad infos: they told us that <code>disable</code> will allow viewwing from a mobile app</p>
