I'm attempting to authenticate a user through Vimeo in order to view a list of their videos on the website.
I'm using the Vimeo php library https://github.com/vimeo/vimeo.php with no errors when including it in my code.
I get the authentication URL and am able to navigate to the Allow APP Access page on Vimeo and when I click "Allow" I'm getting the "invalid_client" error on my redirect page, even though they send back a code in the $_GET.
I'm thoroughly confused at this point since I've got the official API library and the APP is set up correctly as far as I can tell. I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction as to why I'm getting this error and how to fix it!
My Code:
//init Vimeo
require_once("modules/classes/Vimeo/autoload.php");
$lib = new \Vimeo\Vimeo($vimeo_id, $vimeo_secret, $vimeo_access);
if(!isset($_SESSION['vstate'])){
$_SESSION['vstate'] = base64_encode(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(30));
}
$vimeo_authurl = $lib->buildAuthorizationEndpoint($redirecturi,'public private',$_SESSION['vstate']);
if(isset($_GET['code'])){
echo "Code returned: ".$_GET['code'];
if ($_SESSION['vstate'] != $_GET['state']) {
echo 'Something is wrong. Vimeo sent back a different state than this script was expecting. Please let an administrator know that this has happened.';
}
$tokens = $lib->accessToken($_GET['code'], $redirecturi);
if ($tokens['status'] == 200) {
echo 'Vimeo account successfully connected!';
$_SESSION['access_token'] = $tokens['body']['access_token'];
$lib->setToken($token['body']['access_token']);
} else {
echo 'Sorry, we were unable to connect to your Vimeo account due to the following error:<br/>{'.$tokens['body']['error']."} ".$tokens['body']['error_description'];
}
echo "<br/><br/><pre>";
print_r($tokens);
echo "</pre>";
exit();
}
The print_r($tokens) gives this:

So I'm not exactly sure why, but I created a new APP with the same details and this new APP seemed to authenticate fine.
The first APP I was having troubles with I had originally sent a request for Upload Access, but was denied (due to local testing links), so perhaps that was the underlying issue with the "invalid_client" error.
