hi,
@darren Can you help me with this. I’m trying to create weather app where when we write the city name its shows what type of weather it is using JSON api.openweathermap . Let say weather is Rain i want it should show rain image which i have uploaded but still it is not sowing can anyone help me.
Your image is nearly illegible, but I don’t see where you’re setting the ‘weather’ variable, which is why the if statements aren’t giving the expected result.

Attaching other clear picture of my doubt. So my doubt is if I have connected weather text input box with JSON box to show the api of weather once that is done it should show the image according to that image on the app is it possible.
The next step is to post the full JSON response that you’re getting when using your API url in a browser.
Because we need to make sure that the first list item of the “weather” property of the JSON object has a “main” property with something like “Rain” or “Partly Cloud” (I doubt that’s spelled correctly) as a value.
Also, when you preview your blocks on a mobile device, what is the value of “weather’s Text” that you’re seeing?
Lastly, what is the value of the green Error block if you set a label to it?
By the way, I know this is all possible because I did this in my Air Quality app I built last year. I used the API’s graphics (Weather Conditions - OpenWeatherMap) but you can certainly use your own.
Can you send me a sample how can i connect icons weather array with image please?
You didn’t answer my questions so it’s really hard to help you.
You need to type out the entire API url and paste it into a web browser. If you can, share that URL with me. You can blank out the API key if you like so no one else can use it. I have my own. After you visit that url in a web browser, copy the full results you see and paste it here.
I can’t help you without the JSON response. But if you’d rather not post more details, you can watch my tutorial video where I explain how to do all of this – not how to get weather icons, but it should help you figure out how to use an API correctly.

You have to join the weather icon with a url path, according to the API documentation. Here’s how I did it:
This is what the icon looks like in my app:

Can you check this one and say where the error can go
what did you use to show image. I tried in all the method still it is not showing
You’re setting Image’s picture to the value for the icon. To debug this, set a label’s value to that same value that you’re generating.
What is that label’s value when you preview?
