        I’m having some hard time too, I cannot get it to work and get this error, I’m using the same key for the default weather module

        [LOG] [MMM-OpenWeatherForecast] 29-Aug-22 07:50 ** ERROR ** Error: Request failed with status code 401

        Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

        {
        module: “weather”,
        position: “top_right”,
        header: “Weather Forecast”,
        config: {
        weatherProvider: “openweathermap”,
        type: “forecast”,
        location: “Suwanee”,
        locationID: “4225309”,
        apiKey: “working key”
        }
        },

        {
        module: “MMM-OpenWeatherForecast”,
        position: “top_right”,
        header: “Wettervorschau Schama”,
        config: {
        apikey: “same key as above”, //SUPER SECRET

          well, that is

          http error 401 unauthorized
          

          so, that looks like there is some error in your apiKey

                  This is really funny, I downloaded the right module now, tested with my key, and now it is saying the key is invalid, this is the code I’m using

                  {
                                         module: "weather",
                                         position: "top_right",
                                         header: "Weather Forecast",
                                         config: {
                                                 weatherProvider: "openweathermap",
                                                 type: "forecast",
                                                 location: "Suwanee",
                                                 locationID: "4225309",
                                                 apiKey: "Mykey"
                                         }
                                 },
                  
                  
                                 {
                                   module: "MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast",
                                   header: "Weather",

                                   classes: "default everyone",
                                   disabled: false,
                                   config: {
                                     apiKey: "Mykey",
                                     latitude: 51.506130,
                                     longitude: -0.090270,
                                     iconset: "4c",
                                     concise: false,
                                     forecastLayout: "table"
                                   }
                                 },
                  

                  This is the error I get

                  [29.08.2022 09:07.47.834] [LOG] [MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast] 29-Aug-22 09:07 ** ERROR ** No API key configured. Get an API key at https://openweathermap.org/api/one-call-api

                  I tried the Latitude and Longitude with and without quotes.

                    @bassin12 this module uses all lowercase for the key name field

                    apikey:

                    this system is case sensitive

                          hm… I created a new key…

                          seems OpenWeatherForecast has a bug

                          in its node_helper.js
                          ’
                          change

                                    "&units=" + payload.units +
                          

                          to (same as openWeatherMapForecast

                                              (payload.units !== "" ? "&units=" + payload.units : "") +
                          

                          can’t pass in junk

                                @sdetweil I deleted the MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast and reinstalled it as per the instructions. Results below, no change.

                                  I think I was able to get to the bottom of this, you need to subscribe to the API giving your credit card information, also API 2.5 is deprecated for new users, I entered in contact with Open Weather and they have sent me this information.

                                  Hope this helps people in the future.

                                      What service did you subscribe to, as that looks like the only way to enter your credit card info.

                                        Hey @ally, I recently ran into the same problem like you.
                                        I followed all instructions given to you from @sdetweil and finally figured out, what the problem was: openweathermap updated its api to version 3.0!
                                        Even if you have a free subscription (limiting to 1000 api-calls a day, which is fine unless you stay above a refreshrate of every 3 minutes), you need to edit the link in node_helper.js from

                                        var url = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall" +
                                        

                                        to

                                        var url = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall" +
                                        

                                        For the free subscription on API-Version 3.0, you need to provide your credit card information, but you can set the maximum of possible API-calls to 1000, so that you will never ever ran into any costs.

                                            Just following up on this thread - I also am on the “free tier” 2.5 API version and when I try to use MMM-OpenWeatherForecast, it is stuck on “Loading”.

                                            Any advice?
