        What key???

        The API key that you have to sign up for. It’s free. It should tell you where to go in the ReadMe.

        If you are using the default weather module then you have to go to https://www.openweathermap.org/

        Each weather module that requires an API key tells you in the ReadMe file where to go to get the key

              @Mykle1 module: ‘currentweather’,
              position: ‘top_left’,
              config: {
              location: ‘Forlì’,
              locationID: ‘3176746’, //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
              appid: ’37f’
              }
              },
              Why doesn-t work?

                Why doesn-t work?

                Let’s take a look here…

                Remember do not post your api key for any app ;)

                At any rate this returns :

                “invalid API key”… so you don’t have a correct API key, where did you get it from?

                Plus you had Syntax errors… this is the correct way other than API Key…

                {
                             module: 'currentweather',
                             position: 'top_left',
                             config: {
                                location: 'Forlì',
                                locationID: '3176746', //ID from http://www.openweathermap.org
                                appid: 'ca7b4eb9089beeb6a71918a37f20b9'
                                 }
                                   },
