Connect your WeatherLink station

Pro Weather reads your Davis station from the WeatherLink v2 API with a key you generate yourself. Nothing to install. Your station must already be online at weatherlink.com.

Not on WeatherLink? See Connect other hardware.

1. Generate your WeatherLink v2 API key

1. Sign in at weatherlink.com/account.
2. Open the API Keys section.
3. Generate a new v2 key. WeatherLink shows an API Key and an API Secret. Copy both.

2. Connect it to your site

1. Open your site in the dashboard and go to Setup → Connection.
2. Paste the key into API key and the secret into API secret.
3. Choose Connect.

The secret is encrypted when stored and never shown again.

What happens next

Every station and sensor on your account is found automatically and listed under Stations on the Connection page. Their coordinates and time zone come from WeatherLink, so the forecast, sun and moon, sky events, warnings and day boundaries work with nothing to set. A station in the United States starts in imperial units.

• More than one station? Choose which one your site shows under Website → Homepage → Stations.
• Added a sensor or station in WeatherLink later? Choose Reconnect on the Connection page to pick it up.

Your site shows whatever the station reports: temperature, humidity, wind, rain, pressure, solar and UV, air quality from an AirLink, soil and leaf sensors, and console diagnostics for station health. Current readings refresh about every minute. Visitors never reach the WeatherLink API directly, so a busy site costs you nothing in API quota.

How much past data comes across depends on your WeatherLink plan. See WeatherLink plans & your data.

Not seeing data?

• Check the station is still online at weatherlink.com.
• Check the key is a v2 key and the secret belongs to it.
• Check the right station is selected under Website → Homepage → Stations.
• A station that has only just started reporting can take a few minutes to appear.
