Weather data service

I am a farmer. I want to control my irrigation devices more intelligently. I would like to ask if Blynk has any tools that provide weather data according to the device’s location? :heart:

Http api

OpenWeather is a free Api

I think the simplest solution would be to use something like AWS lambda (it’s free for the certain limit). Where AWS lambda requests fetch Weather from the required resources and send it back to the Blynk via HTTP with the required interval. After that you can get this data with your hardware using regular BLynk API (HTTP or virtualSync).

In other words, you need a script that will put required info in a certain pin, so you can fetch that pin with your hardware.

Thank you for sharing above. I will try with HTTP API

Use thing http to fetch day from any website
