@Ale-Trifa Hello, in order to send data to Windy, you need additional software for it. What do you use please?

FrancoisCramer

@TomSlavkovsky The links are not working. What do we need to do with the key once we have it?
It's quite unclear

Korina

@FrancoisCramer Hello, what exactly is not working please? Did you enter your API key?

FrancoisCramer

Hi, if you click on the link, they're not working, as is nothing happens and I get a message error

FrancoisCramer

(https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/API-KEY/STATION_ID)

When I click to Open API, I go to a page with links to methods to retrieve data. These links are dead.

Is there a clear instruction about how to set it up. Clear means that you don't need to be a coder to understand it

Thank you

Korina

@FrancoisCramer Hello, these links serve as an example. As you can see, you will need to add your API key and station ID.

Hi
My station is Oregon WMR100n and Virtual Weather Station as software. Please let me know how to send my data to your site.
Thanks in advance,

It sure would be nice to have an API which tells you information from the closest publicly available weather station to the GPS coordinates you give. I like being able to get my own weather station data, but if I'm not at home, I'd like the closest station to where I currently am.

Anything?

I started sending my PWS data to Windy yesterday via the Windy weewx plugin. My station still doesn't show any data when I try to view it there is just a revolving icon as if it's searching. When I go to data page I can see data there but there are a lot of null values. My station ID is f0689a3c please let me know what else I can check.

Hi to the developer team. Thanks for all your work to allow posting data from personal weather stations.
I know this question has been asked before, but can you please give serious consideration to the option of getting just the most recent data for a given station ID? Having to search for this information by downloading 30 days' worth of data is rather cumbersome and just adds more unnecessary traffic to the internet. It would be far more economical to do the filtering at the source instead of the client.
E.g. how about appending an optional querystring value to the GET request:
https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/API-KEY/STATION_ID?latest
All the best.

@gjh80 Thank you, we will consider it.

Hello

my station sends data every 5 minutes since yesterday, but I can not see them on windy map.
The map just says "Error loading or rendering station data"

My Station-ID is f05644a1

I cant see any error in my data, so can you please give an advice what might be wrong?

Best regards,
Sven

Hello, i can see you are not sending any data for temperature and dew point, please check the API key and that you have set station ID for 0.

sv735687

@korina
ok, the dew point is missing, thats right. But temperature is there, i can see it in
https://stations.windy.com/pws/station/HIDDENAPIKEY/0

and can't the dew point just be calculatet from temp and humidity?

edit: I now also inserted the dew point, so it should be visible within the next minutes

@korina

sorry, but regarding Station-ID f05644a1, I still get "Error loading or rendering station data". Station-ID is 0, Dew point is set, Temp also, I have no idea whats missing.

My last post was this:
{'observations': [{'station': 0, 'dateutc': '2021-03-03T10:26:56', 'temp': 8.2, 'wind': 1.4, 'winddir': 197, 'gust': 2.0, 'humidity': 74, 'uv': 848, 'mbar': 1003.2, 'dewpoint': 3.9}]}

Could you please look whats wrong?

@sv735687 Hello, if you added the station a few hours ago, it make take several hours more till it is display on Windy. Please wait until tomorrow.
