Report your Weather Station Data to Windy
-
Hi, I have a brand new Davis Vantage Pro 2 with UV and Solar radiation sensors and Davis AirLink Air quality monitor, so I can upload solar, PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 measurements. Also, I have AS3935 powered lightning detector. Your API is not ready for this data?
-
@oldrichsveda Hi, at the moment, you cannot send AQ or lightning data via API.

Hi,
I've just registered to upload my station data to Windy and have added the API key to Cumulus MX. A few hours have passed and no sign of it on the site yet. Cumulus is reporting "The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception" and the station link is showing the Error loading station data message.
Any ideas? In the meantime I am going to regenerate the key now and see how it looks in about 30mins
Station ID is f0437f5b
thanks

Hello, please have a look at this category - https://community.windy.com/topic/11570/cumulus-mx-how-to-send-data-to-windy
-
@korina Yes, i have followed those instructions. The Cumulus Mx log is showing "ERROR - The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception" every time it tries to send the data. It appears to be an known issue - have you looked into it at all?
-
@dubmuffin Hello, then I would suggest to update your certificate.
-
@korina Hello, I'm finally uploading with some help from the Cumulus forum! I've put a link to the most useful thread here if anyone else has this issue. I'm no expert, but managed to sort out the cert problem.

UPDATE: Data is now displaying so I guess +- 1 hour - hope this helps others
I just registered a new station f06e461d and am uploading using WeeWX how long does it take before data displays? I am currently just getting "unable to load or render station data"

Hello I have a ecowitt weather station and have generated an api but I don’t know how to get my weather station sending data to windy.com can anyone help me please ?
-
@annerobeson Hello, I would recommend to try CumulusMX - https://community.windy.com/topic/13080/sending-data-from-ecowitt-weather-station?_=1646638073748

Hi there! I'm programming a weather station myself using an ESP8266 controller reading Davis anemometer/vane data. I don't know how to work with Json framework but I can already send data using GET method and would like to know if it's possible to send data using this method for 2 different stations. It seems that we can retrieve data from Windy using .../API-KEY/STATION_ID but I'm not sure if I could use GET method to send data using the same approach. I'll try anyway but maybe someone could help me on this first :)
-
@renato-elias nevermind... just found out how to do... we just need to add the station=id as part of the GET string. It's working ;)
-
So basically this means that Windy has no easy to use set up to add the API of your weather station to their page? Windguru and Wunderground do, very easily. why doesnt it windy too?
-
@lautarojg Hello, adding your station to Windy is easy, all you need to do is to register it at https://stations.windy.com/ and send us your data. In some cases, you will need additional software depending on your station's type.

Hi guys, I need some help to diagnose an issue I have with POST JSON data of my station. Here is my request:
body: "{"observations":[{"station":0,"temp":23.1}]}"and i get
body: "ERROR: no params"Is my JSON format correct? I'm using Node-Red to compile the message and post it.

Good afternoon, colleagues!
I am addressing you with what seems to me a non-standard question.
The situation is as follows - when trying to send data to the site, difficulties arise, what they are connected with, I can’t understand, but I hope for your experience.
I have developed a software and hardware complex for meteorological monitoring based on a microprocessor platform, a sensor unit and a GSM modem for data transmission using GPRS technology.
As a GSM modem, I use the SIM900 module.
The GSM modem is controlled using AT commands.
Sending was tried to be carried out both using the TCP/IP functions, and using the HTTP functions.
That is, by sending a regular GET request in this format:https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/XXX-API-KEY-XXфX?winddir=n&wind=n"
Where n is the corresponding value of the specified parameter.
According to the latest modem responses, as far as I understand, the error lies in the incorrect reception of the sent request, that is, the server cannot process it - HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request.
But at the same time in the browser such a request is processed without problems.
I'm sure this system will work because the two sending methods - TCP/IP and HTTP - will do a great job of sending data to Thingspeak.com.
Therefore, I dare to assume that the error may be on the server side, or I am not connecting to it correctly, or for some other reason I cannot get through to the server, or he really does not like my request, or something else.
Usually, when connecting to the server, the command looks like this:AT+CIPSTART="TCP","api.thingspeak.com","80"
By analogy, I also specify for the site www.windy.com:
AT+CIPSTART="TCP","api.windy.com","80"
But the result is negative, I tried to specify the IP, if I understood correctly:
AT+CIPSTART="TCP","35.201.88.123","80"
But nothing.
I also tried the HTTP method in GET request format:AT+HTTPPARA="URL","https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/XXX-API-KEY-XXX?winddir=n&wind=n"
But also not effective, I tried many options, there were errors 303, 603 and 400.
Can anyone come across with the organization of such methods of sending? Or understands how to organize it correctly, I will be very grateful.
Below I attach the code of the program, as well as a screenshot of an attempt to send data and responses from the module.TCP/IP function:
If the URL is "http://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key=XXX-API-KEY-XXX&field1=n&field2=n&field3=n&field4=n&field5=n&field6=n" and the TCP is "api. thingspeak.com", then everything works.AT+CPIN? AT+CSQ AT+CREG? AT+CGATT? AT+CSTT="internet" AT+CIICR AT+CIFSR AT+CIPSTART="TCP","api.windy.com","80" AT+CIPSEND https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/XXX-API-KEY-XXX?winddir=n&wind=nHTTP function:

Thanks a lot in advance!

@Vladyslav-Lebediev Hello, what type of weather station do you use? You probably need additional software to be able to send us data.
