ACCUWEATHER ENTERPRISE API DOCUMENTATION



 

 



NEW!

INSTANT, FREE ACCESS TO ACCUWEATHER APIS FOR DEVELOPERS

Register at developer.accuweather.com and get limited free access to a sampling
of AccuWeather API endpoints, including Locations, Current Conditions, and Daily
and Hourly Forecasts.

Note: Access to the AccuWeather APIs available through developer.accuweather.com
is separate from access to our Enterprise APIs that are described on this page.
Free demo keys obtained at developer.accuweather.com will not work on links
shown on this documentation site (apidev.accuweather.com/developers/). Thank you
for your interest as we continue to expand the role of our new developer site,
and thank you for choosing AccuWeather APIs!

 

 

GENERAL INFORMATION

 

 * The AccuWeather Enterprise API provides subscribers access to location based
   weather data via a simple RESTful web interface.

 * Access to the AccuWeather Enterprise API requires an API key.  Contact
   sales@accuweather.com to receive an API key.

 * If required by the terms of your agreement, a partner code will be provided
   to you by your AccuWeather representative.  Please append the assigned
   partner code to the links provided in the output.  Click here for an example.
    

 * Data is available in more than 200 languages and dialects.

 * Use hostname: apidev.accuweather.com for development purposes only.

 * Use hostname: api.accuweather.com for production purposes only.

 * All data is returned in JSON format. Historical API endpoints offer optional
   CSV formatting as well.

 * Data encryption is also available for secure communication with your set up.
   This is done with the use of "https://" scheme in your URLs.

 * JSONP is available. Please use "parse_response" as the callback parameter.

   developer implementation.

   from the server itself. 

 * An error response will describe the specifics of any errors.

Success Response Code Response Name Description 200 OK The request was
fulfilled.

bad syntax or the parameters supplied were invalid. 403 Forbidden A valid API
