HTTP API for weather forecast - /api/simplifiedfuturemeasure

thjaeckle

Hello there.

I noticed that the "Control Dashboard" shown at https://home.netatmo.com/control/dashboard also displays a weather forecast, which is really accurate, detailed and awesome in the API response.

The API endpoint is: https://api.netatmo.com/api/simplifiedfuturemeasure

Part of the response e.g. being:

```
{

    "body": {
        "forecastDays": [
            {
                "day_ts": 1717538400,
                "min_temp": 13,
                "max_temp": 25,
                "sunset": 1717615071,
                "sunrise": 1717558014,
                "rain": 0.97,
                "uv": 6,
                "windstrength": 16,
                "windgust": 32,
                "windangle": 120,
                "winddirection": 300,
                "wind_direction": 240,
                "weather_symbol_day": "120000",
                "day_locale": "Mi. 05 Juni"
            },
            {
                "day_ts": 1717624800,
                "min_temp": 13,
                "max_temp": 25,
                "sunset": 1717701518,
                "sunrise": 1717644387,
                "sun": 7.6,
                "weather_symbol_day": "323000",
                "rain": 0.35,
                "uv": 6,
                "windstrength": 16,
                "windgust": 31,
                "windangle": 108,
                "winddirection": 288,
                "wind_direction": 252,
                "day_locale": "Do. 06 Juni"
            },
```
 
I however also noticed that I am not able to call this API with the default access_token/refresh_token I can retrieve for my personal use at https://dev.netatmo.com/apps/.
 
Could you consider "opening" this API and providing it for your users/developers? I imagine great stuff to be built with it.
I am e.g. displaying my Netatmo station data on an e-ink display and I would really want to also display a local weather forecast.
 
Best regards
Thomas

    Hello Thomas,

    Indeed, the access_token from the webapp has a higher access level than the one from a classic third-party use. So that, some information are only displayed in the web app or our native apps

    Forecast information are provided by a partner with an interpretation of their data in our API. Unfortunately, we can't display this in the public API as these data don't belong to us

    Have a good day,
