Although as you point out, it is contrary to the point of Edge drivers which are intended to b…

This is one of those areas where there is functionality that has been around for a long time now, and that is in use in Automations, that simply isn’t documented for general use yet.

[image] GSzabados: But out of curiosity, do you see that you can use it for different locations as well? It is not clear for me. Unfortunately we seem to be at the stage where the documentation is teasing us rather than enlightening us. The Coordinate API seems to work with latitude and longi…

[image] milandjurovic71: It is not about “local” execution, as device is gathering (parsing) data from “online” source, it’s about having same SmartWeather device available when Groovy is shut down. I am looking for new Edge driver replacement for old Groovy device. I know that that data come…
