Integrate Amazon SNS with Vimeo

Amazon SNS is a web service that can be used to publish messages. Amazon SNS is simple to use, and it can be used to send notifications to clients or send data to other applications. It also enables users to subscribe to specific topics so that they will receive notifications when the topic is updated. The Amazon SNS API is an HTTP-based interface that provides access to Amazon SNS resources.

Vimeo is a video-sharing website where users can upload, share, and view videos. Vimeo provides features like HD video playback, social networking, user profiles, and statistics that help users find and share videos.

Integration of Amazon SNS and Vimeo

The Amazon SNS API allows users to create messages using the POST method. The POST method requires sending JSON formatted request data. We can create a message using the POST method by creating a JSON string containing the message data. We need to specify the topic ARN (Amazon Resource Name), type of message (notification), and message data in the JSON string. The fplowing example uses the POST method to create a notification message that will be delivered to all Vimeo subscribers with the specified topic ARN:

{ "TopicArn". "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:my-topic", "Notification". { "TopicArn". "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:my-topic", "Subject". "AWS Cloud Computing", "Message". "This is a test message." } }

Vimeo has a graphical user interface, which allows us to subscribe to a topic on Amazon SNS. After we have subscribed to a topic on Amazon SNS, we can send notifications from Vimeo by specifying the URL of the topic endpoint on Amazon SNS. In this example, we specify the subscription URL of the topic ARN created in step 1. The URL for the topic endpoint looks like the fplowing:

https://sns.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/my-topic?Action=Subscribe&Version=2011-04-15& Protocp=AWS%20Signature&Timestamp=2011-05-08T16%3A28%3A00Z& Signature=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

After we send the notification using Vimeo as described in step 2, we can check whether the notification was received by subscribing to the topic ARN on Amazon SNS and checking if the preview for this topic is null or not null . If it is null , then we know that the notification was not received by any client and we need to re-send it until we receive a non-null preview value for this topic ARN. If we receive the notification, we can successfully integrate Vimeo and Amazon SNS.
