Still struggling, check out the Authentication documentation in my Postman Collection repo.

Classes

There are two classes implemented in this module.

AmbientAPI

This is the base API that you initialize in your code.

from ambient_api.ambientapi import AmbientAPI
import time

api = AmbientAPI()

This class takes care of authenticating to, and sending calls to the API. It can be expanded as needed in the future.

AmbientWeatherStation

This class represents a single Weather Station. When you ask AmbientAPI for a list of devices, it returns a list of AmbientWeatherStations, and from this class, you can query the weather station itself.

devices = api.get_devices()

device = devices[0]

time.sleep(1) #pause for a second to avoid API limits

print(device.get_data())

Learn more about the Ambient Weather API at the Ambient Weather API Documentation.
