      Hello,

      I implemented the Windy API https://api.windy.com/api/point-forecast/v2 in a Sheet document, via a Script.
      The result works, but is unusable because the data seems to be fake and random.

      Is it because I only have a free key?

      Could there be a much more affordable plan than the professional one, for people like me who only want to have automatic wind/temperature/pressure input in a navlog document for leisure purpose?

      See the different results for 2 identical requests : Same function, same parameters (lat, lon, serial date)

      Regards

        @amelingu Hello, free API is provided only to test the implementation and it provides completely random data. If you want to get the correct data, the Professional API is now the only way how to handle this.
