Overview#

The DarkSky API offers detailed weather information that includes minute-by-minute forecasts, hourly forecasts, and daily summaries. By harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can automate tasks like sending alerts, integrating weather data into event planning platforms, or tailoring content based on weather conditions. With Pipedream’s serverless platform, these use cases become straightforward to implement, and you can trigger workflows with new weather data, schedule checks at regular intervals, or even react to changes in forecasted conditions.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    darksky_api: {
      type: "app",
      app: "darksky_api",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.darksky.net/forecast/${this.darksky_api.$auth.secret_key}/37.8267,-122.4233`,
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Weather-Based Content Personalization: Tailor user experiences by integrating DarkSky with a content management system (CMS). For instance, trigger a workflow that updates your website's featured products based on the current weather, promoting umbrellas on rainy days or sunglasses when it's sunny.
Event Weather Preparedness: Connect DarkSky to a calendar or event management app to monitor forecasted conditions for upcoming events. Automate notifications to event attendees, suggesting they bring a coat if it's going to be cold, or reschedule outdoor activities if a storm is on the horizon.
Personal Weather Notifications: Create a personalized weather notification system. Use DarkSky's data to send daily weather summaries or severe weather alerts to your phone via SMS or messaging apps like Slack, keeping you informed and ready for the day's conditions.

Authentication#

Name Slug: darksky_api

DarkSky API uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your DarkSky API account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to DarkSky API APIs in both code and no-code steps.

The API key is made available at the Account page.
