API beta test

saaneuvos

@nesro and @marekd If the reason is the animation, it would be OK to have 3 hour a.s. there, but to have possibility too look data for every 1 hour time step?

nesro

@saaneuvos It is the image data of premium models with 1 hour granularity that are not available for Map Forecast API. They are only available on www.windy.com for premium users.

There is no way how the API client can access the 1 hour image data right now.

saaneuvos

@nesro Will the 1 hour data be back for paid Map forecast API some day. Now you can get 1 hour GFS in free version of Map forecast API, but not Icon even in paid pro version?

@saaneuvos GFS is at this moment free for all users. ICON do not. We are sorry, it was bug that 1h forecast was available. It is a premium feature for windy.com users. It is not available for API, unfortunately. Sorry for all troubles, but we have basically just fixed a bug.

saaneuvos

@marekd OK. I'm trying to settle for this ;)

@Thiago-Gabriel Hi! I got the same error as you and I fixed it by removing the global window.W when unmounting my component. So I still run init on mount but now I don't get the warning. Feels like a hack but I don't know any other way to fix this in a SPA. Hope this is some kind of help

KimDotSe

@KimDotSe I got some more errors from windys lib-somthing file after removing global.W. Moved the delete to right before i run init again instead.

How does beta testing work? What are the benefits of beta testing?

Beta testing is the second phase of software development, when a sample of the intended audience tries out the product for the purpose of testing whether or not it meets their expectations. The Greek alphabet consists of a total of 26 letters, with Beta being the second letter. There used to be a term called alpha test that referred to the first phase of testing in the software development cycle.

Hello,

I am a developer currently working on a weather application for both iOS and Android. I have been testing the Trial version of your API and have a few questions that I hope you can help me with:

The weather data I receive from the Trial API is not hourly but rather at intervals, for example, 13:00, 17:00, 18:00, and 20:00. If I subscribe to the Professional API, will I be able to get accurate hourly weather data, or will it still be provided at intervals?

The Trial API provides weather data for around the next 10 days. If I subscribe to the Professional API, will I be able to access weather data for a longer period?

Windy subscriptions to the Professional API are based on a key. If I need to change my key midway, will I have to pay again? Consider a scenario where, while using the Professional API, I discover that my key has been compromised and is being misused. If I want to change my key in such a situation, will I need to pay again?

I look forward to your response and sincerely appreciate your help!

Best regards,
