PWS - Occasional API Error

Neil Ratan

I am new to all of this. I recently fixed some sensors outside and wanted to send them to Windy. I send all my data to an MQTT server (I made it on pythonanywhere.com) and the MQTT sends it to Windy.
I have checked The data uploads, but occasionally I get an error "Unauthorised". See my server logs:

Can you tell me why this happens?

This is the link to my station: link

Suty

@Neil-Ratan Hello there, do you still have the issue with the invalid token? I see your station already started to report since then.

Neil Ratan

@Suty Yes, I still have the issue. It happens occasionally. I couldn't find any pattern or correlation in them. It just happens randomly.

Neil Ratan

@Suty This is from today. It happened again, multiple times and there are more```

@Suty Will I get any solutions here?

Suty

@Neil-Ratan Hi, can you share the API key, that you send there, to my DMs, so we can check that on our end for you?

Neil Ratan

@Suty Done
