Replace WUG with AccuWeather

Post by djac »

As Weather Underground are discontinuing their service I have signed up for Accuweather, works fine but I struggle to get the correct Location Key. I am in Höllviken, Sweden, and when I use their homepage I see the code 309633 being used, when I use that in Domoticz I get data but it's not correct, wrong temeprature etc.

Anyone that have had this to work, any tips?

(or is there a better service to use?)

Hi,
I've unsuccessful tried to integrate my domoticz with AccuWeather. What exactly should I put into location field? Nothing seems to work correctly :(

API seem to work with the id that you can find e.g. from the url of the location. Just use the finder or browse through https://www.accuweather.com/en/browse-locations

For New York, US this would be https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/new-y ... ast/349727 -> 349727

To obtain an API key, it seems you have to create an app in https://developer.accuweather.com/user/me/apps
