      @TerrorBite Hi, our trial version of API is rather for testing purposes for potential customers of the Professional license.

      According to the Home version of API, we are not planning this now. However, I could consider with colleagues from the product team.

        @Suty I would also love this for the exact same use case. I'm a premium user and really only care about the weather at my home's exact address (so I can automate with things like "when it's expected to rain"), so perhaps this would be another limitation that we'd be fine with as a differentiator to the professional API.

          Hello Windy,

          I'm in the same situration.

          I just got a ground-heating system, that I'm integrating into Homeassistant, and I want to add weather forcast data into HA, in order to optimize the heating system.
          The data I'm specifically looking for, is wind direction, avg. wind speed, expected gust speeds and expected temperatures.
          My current guess is that I need a 48h forecast in order for it to be helpfull.

          the reason for the wind-direction is that if we have 30m/s from north or east, then it doesn't affect me, heating wise, but if it's from south-west, then we need substancial more heating

                        Since having Premium I often think that its such a shame that I can not use all the good forecast data in my Home Assistant setup.
                        I would love to see Windy giving some access to their API for Premium users/Personal-usecases.

                            @Suty Would love to have some version of a Home Version API for Premium users. Using Windy in my i3 Statusbar would be awesome.

                              I'm also a premium user who would love to integrate Windy data directly into my home assistant setup...

                                I am in the same scenario, I would like to use Windy forecast data for Home Assistant automations. I’m also a premium user, and contribute data from my home weather station up to Windy. It would even be perfect if Windy would give weather station contributors API, premium or Professional access in return for weather data…

                                  I would even pay a small fee for this, cause I know maintaining an api costs money. But on the other hand it won’t be much more expensive compared to people refreshing the website a lot of times during the day.
                                  And a discount or even free for people sharing their own weather station date would be fair.
                                  I live in a remote location and I’m planning to buy a weather station and calibrated outdoor air quality sensors.

                                    Is this enough interest to poke someone to make a Home edition ;)

                                        Also interested. Would love to be able to charge my batteries at night (for cheap) ahead of a cloudy day.

                                            Hi, I've just signed up to show my interest for this. I'd like to build an alert system for an home automation project. Hope an Home plan will come soon :)
