Weather API Changes

All SmartThings published SmartApps and device types have been converted to use the new The Weather Company (TWC) API.

Many individuals’ SmartApps continue to use the old Weather Underground (WU) APIs. Although these APIs have have continued to work since the Jan 1, 2019 shutdown, we were informed by The Weather Company that there will be a firm shutdown on Feb 2, 2019. Calls from these individuals’ SmartApps and devices will start failing after the WU shutdown.

To improve the integrations with Personal Weather Stations (PWS), we’ve added a new API to retrieve this data:

def getTwcPwsConditions(stationId)

Return personal weather station data for the specified ID
