Requirements
To be able to get receive a Zoom stream on Vimeo you need an Advanced or Enterprise plan (one that support "Live Events"). Check Vimeo plans. Note that the Advanced plan only supports two live streams in parallel.
To be able to send a video stream from Zoom to Vimeo, you need a Zoom Pro, Business, Education, or Enterprise account. Check Zoom guidelines.

Click on "Create Live Broadcast" to create a new event
In the Event page, do the following:
Rename the event, set start and end date/time.
Viewing privacy: set to unlisted link
Turn on "chat" if needed
Go to Appearance tab. Generally you might want to set "Show Vimeo Logo" to off. Change other settings as needed
Get the rtmp link and Embed Codes
To get the Vimeo rtmp link, click on "Manage production" and select "Stream with an encoder"
Copy the RTMPS URL, Stream Key and the Link. These will be input later in Zoom.

These are the codes that need to be pasted in the EmbedHtml component in GMetri.
GMetri Setup
Every time in the Vimeo event Link, there are two string to take note of:
https://vimeo.com/event/3448527/ea06876db1 (Second string doesn't show up every time)
From those two strings, we can generate the following:
Video Link:

https://vimeo.com/event/3448527/chat/ea06876db1Video link used within embed:
