Weatherflow

Does anyone have Weatherflow integrated into Smartthings or is working on an integration? Their website shows it as integrated but I do not actually see it as such

LOL “Smarthome Ready” means they give you an API and you have to find a “developer” to create the integration, according to someone on their forum who is one of thier “Field Testers”…

Thats odd cause it actually shows the works with smartthings logo on the page but yes, that is all i found.

Yeah, via IFTTT :slight_smile:

I am curious how to get the info into webcore properly, could be useful there.

I received an email from Weatherflow tech support today. They expect direct integration with SmartThings before March 2020. Starting with their Tempest weather station.

Just a follow up… They are still advertising it as “Works with SmartThings” but it would appear they haven’t even started working on the integration. Contacting support tells you to use IFTTT and to submit and vote for features for them to consider working on…

I found this one if anyone stumbles on this and was tricked into buying the Tempest like I was thinking it was going to work with SmartThings out of the box like they promised: https://community.weatherflow.com/t/smartthings-integration/7576/2

Vote here!

Has anyone made any progress here? I noticed that WeatherFlow no longer has SmartThings listed on their site (except through IFTTT). Wondering if they just gave up?

I would love to find a way to display the weather info on one of my Samsung TVs

Personally it seems like a promise they keep making (they even said the old version was going to have the ST support) without any real intention of following through. As someone who bought the tempest strictly because of the advertised ST support on day one of release, I’m pretty unhappy about the whole situation.

They posted in their forum today that they were working on it…
They also said, give us a few more weeks… (I don’t believe that though…)

You can use the “Make a web request” option to tap into the WeatherFlow API. You have to get a token, instructions are here: WeatherFlow Tempest API & Developer Platform

Once you have the token, just set your action
With Location → Make a web request
URL Value = https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/observations/station/[YourStationID]?token=[YourTokenID]

Here is a sample piston I just threw together that at 10:00am every day, it checks to see what the current wind gusts are being reported from your station and if they are greater than 20 mph, turn the cabinet lights red

You can also get a full forecast by changing the URL to be:
https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/better_forecast?station_id=[StationID]&token=[TokenID]

If you want a quick view of all that values that you can access, just run it in curl from a shell
curl https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/observations/station/[StationID]&token=[MyTokenID] | json_pp
