The api call daily threshold for billing is 1,000. The default setting is to update every 10 minutes and that equals to 144 daily calls.

{
		module: "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast",

        apiBaseURL: "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?",
        apikey: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", //only string here
      latitude: 51.xxxxxxxx,            //number works here
      longitude: 6.9xxxxxxxx,          //so does a string
      updateInterval: 45,
	iconset: "3c",
	maxDailiesToShow: 4,
	maxHourliesToShow: 4,
	label_hourlyTimeFormat: "k[ Uhr]",
	label_sunriseTimeFormat: "k:mm",  // change the format for this one 
	label_days: ["So", "Mo", "Di", "Mi", "Do", "Fr", "Sa"]

In addition I added “https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall?” as mentioned by @Ray in the node_helper.js in the weather module. The update intervall is 45 minutes - which means below 1000 calls per month
The module is running again!!!

The module sends is weather info, too. But I think both modules are not capable of use the info provided by notification at the moment

So the othermodules could use it

As an example I can have this module running for a comprehensive look at my local weather, plus an instance of the default weather module telling me what’s happening with a friend or relatives, plus I’m running MMM-DynamicWeather.

The API will count all the calls from all sources. It would be great if the MM system could pull the data and broadcast it to modules as needed, but that’s not how it works.

so here’s what I found out
I have MMM-OpenWeatherForecast checking the temperature in two time zones
and one of the time zone I have set requestDelay: 250
this was done before the upgrade to 3.0 call abb
since then I have deleted one of the time zones
but forgot to delete requestDelay: 250 an error in my part

it turns out that the One Call API 3.0 was counting all the calls in that 250
in version 2.5 we didn’t have to worry about that

and when I started up in the morning around 8 o’clock in the morning I would think there would only be one call
but when I looked it said there were 20
so like I said maybe it’s a carryover from the previous day

so tomorrow morning I’m going to conduct a test
I will check the website first to see if there any calls there before I start my mirror

if you want I will let you know

Maybe it is a matter of your timezone and calls of the last day are counted in the current one.

What does your statistic look like

https://home.openweathermap.org/statistics/onecall_30

Edit:
And one small side note. Even if you use different keys the calls a summarized per account

but that’s not my question maybe it can’t be answered
my magic mirror is on a computer when I boot the computer up in the morning it will automatically start magic mirror usually the first thing it checks is the weather
if I turn the computer off there should be no more calls to the weather app

so my original question would be if I turn my computer on first thing in the morning and I go to the weather app why does it say I already have 20 calls that’s my real question

@wishmaster270 yes I have mine set for 15
but that doesn’t explain why when I turn it on for the first time in the morning they already have 20 calls I don’t get that

What means “turn it on”? Boot up the Pi or turn on the screen?
