      My PWS has been connected to Windy for several years. I recently moved house and brought my weather station with me.

      To keep the data clean I deleted my old station, however now I am not able to add a new one for my new location.

      When I try to add the station via the web GUI it just drops me back to the empty station list screen. I've tried using Safari, Firefox and Chromium.

      I've also tried adding it via the API as below (I believe this is the correct syntax?):

      $ curl -d '{"stations": [{"station": 0, "name": "The Hermitage", "lat": -XX.53011, "lon": XXX.65417, "elevation": 1058, "tempheight": 2, "windheight": 6}]}' https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/XXXXAPIKEYXXXX
      SUCCESS
      

      Although it says SUCCESS and returns 200, no station is added. (Actually all of my API operations return SUCCESS in the body, even bogus ones, so I'm not sure that says much. There's nothing interesting in the response headers which indicate success or failure.)

      Any ideas? Am I doing something silly?

        @lightbulbjim thank you for all info you provided. I already forwarded the issue to our colleagues from the product team. However, I would need further details about your process, but it would be better to send them by email to support@windy.com.

        In that email, I need your API key and the whole request, so we can check where the issue is exactly.

            In case anybody else is having this problem and finds this thread, this is now solved. I contacted support@windy.com and they resolved it on their end. I'm not sure what the problem was.
