How to Access the Windy Stations Data
-
@TomSlavkovsky I was not able to successfully get a database dump of weather stations. Everytime I hit this api https://stations.windy.com/pws/stations/myapikey898
I get a 400 bad request error that says "invalid token". I am replacing myapikey898 with my actual api keyDo I need to pass in headers or anything?

@windGoggles you are not using valid API key, please generate your api key on stations.windy.com.

@TomSlavkovsky you were right, the problem was that I was trying to use the same API key that I am using for the api4 chart.
Anyone else that stumbles upon this issue and is having trouble figuring out which key to use, read the following:
The API key that you receive from this URL, https://api4.windy.com/api-key/, will not work. You need instead to go to https://stations.windy.com/stations and click on "show key" in the banner on the bottom of the page. That is the key you need to access the JSON data from the stations.

None of them work, it says “Invalid token” for each one.

Do you ever answer messages?

Hello @windywolf-0, you need to add your station ID and API key to the link.

Hi Tom,
I've registered my weather station and generated an API Key, but don't know what to do with the key. My weather station reports to Weather Underground and the data is readily available through that portal, but I don't know how to get my data to Windy.
Also, once it's set up, does my station automatically transmit data to Windy?
Best wishes

Hello,
is there also an option for only getting the most recent measurement?

@Πέτρος
Hello, your stations are not sharing any data with us. Please check that you have implemented your API key correctly. -

@Πέτρος I will get in touch with you via email.
I will delete the API key from your posts. You should keep it in private.

Hi,
I’m from Philippines and we’re interested in putting our weather stations information directly to windy.
I tried to add one of our weather station, I followed the API instructions in updating the station data using this:
https://stations.windy.com/pws/update/API_KEY?winddir=111&windspeedmph=3&windgustmph=6&tempf=30&rainin=0&baromin=30&dewptf=79.8&humidity=81however, when I try to check my station in windy map I can’t see any data and it keeps loading the ECMWF tab.
here's my station: https://www.windy.com/station/pws-f0645c8d?17.001,121.749,8,i:pressure
Can someone help me with this I might missing some steps here. Thank you
