How to get a Vimeo video embedded in a growth path steps or thread posts?

Hi all, 🌝
I'm trying to embed Vimeo videos in growth path steps.
But so far, the growth path tool won't load the Vimeo player.
Here is an Vimeo video link I pasted using the growth path tool:
"embedded" button:
I also tried this Vimeo video link:
When I click the button to embed,
then I get a box with a sad face.
I also can't get the forum message box to load a Vimeo video either.
I tried the 
"video" button.
Then the Vimeo video player appears
but when I click Post, it disappears.
The "video" button's message says it can load Vimeo videos and others types:
"Insert Video Video URL (YouTube, Vimeo, Vine, Instagram, DailyMotion or Youku)".
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you! 🌝
@7motivation You have to put the whole link in the video button, not the embedd stuff
Edit - seems to be deleted after showing up for me LOL
This is just one of the videos you shared
@7motivation so it is definitely glitching

Thank you so much for the fast reply!!! Wow!
I think I found the answer just now on the Vimeo site.
I think free Vimeo account videos are not allowed to play in embedded players.
So an alternative is to use YouTube instead because it's free and allows embedded videos.
Here is a YouTube version of one of the videos.
It was made with Animaker.
The other video was made with Powtoon.
Both are really great tools for making cartoon-like insprations videos fast.
Animaker is especially good because it has build-in text-to-voice with lip-sync.
Oh that would make sense!

Thank you. After more research, I'm not sure what's causing my Vimeo video links to not play on 7cups webpages.
Vimeo seems to say conflicting things about free accounts supporting embedding videos.
If someone is able to get an embedded Vimeo video to play on 7cups, I would greatly appreciate learning how they did it.
I'd especially like to know:
- What did the Vimeo video link look like when pasted into 7cups embed box?
- Was the Vimeo video from a free account or higher level account?

I made some progress.
I was actually able to get the Vimeo video to play in a growth path step builder.
I used this link that has the word player in it:
https://player.vimeo.com/video/750503065
Then after clicking the embedded button,
the video player appeared in on the path builder box.
Then I clicked on the video play button
and the video actually started playing in the path builder box.
But then when I click Update button to save the path step edit,
then the Vimeo video player would not appear.
So I see a blank section like you saw above.
So now I think it might be a 7cups glitch.
@7motivation A glitch would make sense.
