      @DDE12 no idea

      the module says go here
      https://home.openweathermap.org/users/sign_up
      the default weather openWeathermap provide says
      https://home.openweathermap.org/users/sign_in

      so it would seem the same key

      the module uses this path

      https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?"
      

      the default module uses this

      		apiVersion: "2.5",
      		apiBase: "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/"
                              +apiVersion+"onecall?"
      

      so, they appear the same

        I put in a new key just to see but still have the same 401 error. When I installed the module I got

        npm WARN old lockfile
        npm WARN old lockfile The package-lock.json file was created with an old version of npm,
        npm WARN old lockfile so supplemental metadata must be fetched from the registry.
        npm WARN old lockfile
        npm WARN old lockfile This is a one-time fix-up, please be patient...
        npm WARN old lockfile
        
        added 4 packages, and audited 391 packages in 50s
        
        1 package is looking for funding
          run `npm fund` for details
        
        39 vulnerabilities (2 low, 15 moderate, 19 high, 3 critical)
        
        To address all issues, run:
          npm audit fix
        
        Run `npm audit` for details.
        

        I did not run audit fix. Is there something that I need to do with the install?

          @DDE12 NEVER run audit fix…

          i don’t know why the MMM-OpenWeatherForecast is failing ,
          other than it says unauthorized. i would open an issue for the author.

            @DDE12 Could you share your config? Also be sure put your API key in quotes in the configuration. If you aren’t using quotes, this could be a reason why the module is giving you the 401 error

              I can, but I think I figured it out last night without changing anything in MM or the module. I initially signed up for the free account on OpenWeatherMap. Last night I signed up for the One Call by Call https://openweathermap.org/api and MMM-OpenWeatherForecast starting working. Before signing up, I tested my API in a browser at https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?lat=someLatitude&lon=someLongitude&appid=secretAPI
              and at https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?lat=someLatitude&lon=someLongitude&appid=secretAPI
              and both reported 401 error. After signing up, the module began working in MM. This does require a credit card and subscribers get 1000 free calls per day. Subscribers can set the maximum number of calls in their dashboard to prevent going over and getting charged. This doesn’t seem like it would be too much of a problem if users set the module’s config appropriately.

              I’m guessing that the module is trying to get data that is no longer free and some API’s are grandfathered ?? Or I misunderstood what type of account I needed from the start.

              Where is the API address in the module’s code?

              Let me know if I can provide further information.

                If the Module doesn’t load the informations change ```
                “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall”

                to
                

                “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?”

                an it should work!

                  @DDE12 the API url is in the node_helper.js

                  we recently add a Parm to enable picking v3 of the API vs 2.5 (old free).

                  the add on modules need to do the same

                    Fantastic work! I was using the previous DarkSkyForecast version - easy shift to this one.

                    I’m trying to put the hourly data and daily data in the same “row” across using tiled view instead of 2 rows. I’m happy to edit the njk file (have tweaked a bit haven’t gotten it “just right” yet). Any ideas? I gather it’s something with the hourly and daily divs.

                    Is data available to get mm of precipitation in the hourly and daily blocks? It shows % chance - keen to add precipitation instead.

                    Thanks!!

                      Replying to my own post incase someone else wants a single row for 3 hours and 3 days. You’ll need to comment out lines 191, 309, 315, 318 in the njk file. This results in a single row readable left to right hours then days. It’s a useful view if you’re using a full width view.

                        So what’s the solution for the 401 error?
                        The key works in default weather module, but in this one it’s not.

                        Can you elaborate why?
                        I for one don’t like seeing vulnerabilities and critical messages anywhere, and letting security flaws linger…
