Hello I watched the videos [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-OO0wEYcrs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-OO0wEYcrs) the APIKEy to take the temperature from the site [https://home.openweathermap.org/api\_keys](https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys) I would like to know if it is possible to take rain or sun or cloud data ---

I haven’t worked with forecasts. I’ve only gotten current conditions. But this topic is all about getting the weather icon: > [@How can to Set the Image Icon According to the City from Open Weather Map API](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-can-to-set-the-image-icon-according-to-the-city-from-open-weather-map-api/1403386): > > Hi, Please help me with setting the icon from open weather map api. I am unable to get the code. ---

I’m reposting your JSON text with smart quotes removed since the forum software seems to mess that up: ```auto {"coord":{"lon":-0.0918,"lat":51.5128},"weather":[{"id":500,"main":"Rain","description":"light rain","icon":"10n"}],"base":"stations","main":{"temp":5.27,"feels_like":4.47,"temp_min":3.95,"temp_max":6.25,"pressure":998,"humidity":79},"visibility":10000,"wind":{"speed":1.34,"deg":274,"gust":5.36},"rain":{"1h":0.18},"clouds":{"all":40},"dt":1638654025,"sys":{"type":2,"id":2019646,"country":"GB","sunrise":1638604085,"sunset":1638633211},"timezone":0,"id":2643741,"name":"City of London","cod":200} ``` One way to avoid that is to add three tick marks (```) before and after the JSON text. Or select your text and click the Preformatted text button in the post toolbar: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/a/7a1e6beb5f4dde6d0344b8e1477a99ec6f71deb1.png) When I put that reformatted text into [Best JSON Viewer and JSON Beautifier Online](https://codebeautify.org/jsonviewer), I get this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/2/32176a42c2adc00540cd35c0f60d1df4097c7810.png) You can see that when I clicked on “description” on that site, it provides the path to that property at the top. So it’s (object)–\>weather–\>[first list item]–\>description. Try this property in the `get property of object` block: “weather[1].description” or “weather[1].icon”. You can use multiple `get property of object` blocks as in your screenshot but you don’t have to. My method is a shortcut where you add all properties and list indexes in a single text string. ---

Here’s a demo project (see the screen with your username in the title): [https://x.thunkable.com/copy/bc9585eeb54499f5352488634b3b8a7c](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/bc9585eeb54499f5352488634b3b8a7c) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/5/3/536f8a9c87d8f57f52a2466143d6da159a098c42.png) **Note:** I removed your APP ID from the Web\_API1’s URL block. It’s up to you but you may want to remove it from your post above since anyone can then use your APP ID/key. ---

Hello I tried to insert the following link for the forecast 3 days from today, but it gives me an API error, are there any restrictions for use? [https://openweathermap.org/forecast16#limit](https://openweathermap.org/forecast16#limit) Example link from the site by inserting my ApiKey [[http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast/daily?q=London&cnt=3&appid=](http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast/daily?q=London&cnt=3&appid=)[{API key}](https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys)]([http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast/daily?q=\*\*London\*\*&cnt=\*\*3\*\*&appid=](http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast/daily?q= **London** &cnt= **3** &appid=)**[{API key}]**([Members](https://home.openweathermap.org/api_keys))) Result > {“cod”:401, “message”: “Invalid API key. Please see [Frequently Asked Questions - OpenWeatherMap](http://openweathermap.org/faq#error401) for more info.”} can you clarify the subject? ---

Have you paid for a subscription? The free version of OpenWeatherMap does not allow you to get daily forecast data for 16 days which I think is what you’re trying. Instead, use the free 5 day forecast: [https://openweathermap.org/forecast5](https://openweathermap.org/forecast5) So an example that works for me is: [https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast?q=London&cnt=3&appid={API%20key}](https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast?q=London&cnt=3&appid=%7BAPI%20key%7D) ---
