WiFiLogger 2
-
I have a Davis Vantage Pro2 with a WiFiLogger 2 running firmware version 2.43. I am trying to get my station data to send to Windy.com. Here are the steps I have followed:
Created Windy.com account
Created Windy.com station
In WiFiLogger 2 > Setup > Data Export Setup, configured Windy.com export settings section as follows:Mode: Enable
API Key: (from Windy.com > Stations > Edit Stations > Connection)
Station ID: 1 (also tried 0)Saved export settings
When I view my Windy.com station the status is Offline. How do I get my WiFiLogger 2 working with Windy.com?
Thank you in advance!

@ScotchNSoda1 Hello, more info here, however, we don't support this from our end.

@Suty Thank you for your reply and referring me to that related topic. It sounds like @caymanislands and I are experiencing the same issue.
Here is sample debug from my WiFiLogger 2 when it sends data to Windy.com

HTTPS connection time: 22302230Do you see anything wrong with this data?

@ScotchNSoda1 Okay, can you share some requests that are sent to Windy and what we send back?

@ScotchNSoda1 Hello, I forwarded this issue to colleagues to get further insight on this. I will keep you informed.

@scotchnsoda1 I can see you are still using API v1, which is no longer supported. Please use API v2 instead: https://stations.windy.com/api-reference
Sorry for the inconvenience, and I hope to see your station back on Windy soon.

@marekd Thank you reviewing. Just to confirm, are you saying that I am using API v1 because my data is being sent to https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/ instead of https://stations.windy.com/api/v2/pws ?
Per the API Reference:
This is a new API, effective from January 2026.
If you are currently using a previous (legacy) version of the API, please note that it is no longer supported. The legacy API will remain operational only until the end of 2026, after which it will be fully shut down.
Although the previous API is no longer supported, shouldn't it still function until the end of this year?
-
@ScotchNSoda1 Yes, it should operate until the end of 2026. And I can confirm that many stations still use this endpoint for posting data. If I understand correctly, you use a third-party solution, and this can cause incompatibility.
