Hi!

I've just bought a Sainlogic FT-300-Wifi weather station which submits the weather data to Weather Underground and weathercloud. In WU I can see only the weather station data, whilst in WC I see Weather Station + indoor temperature & humidity.

NOW: pwsdashboard.com seems to be exactly what I've been looking for. In one of the examples (https://pwsdashboard.net/pwsWD/index.php) also the indoor temperature is shown, and for my usage following and recording the indoor temp & humidity would be crucial.

Question: Will I be able to retrieve also indoor data from WU --> Pwsdashboard? It seems as they've stopped recording indoor data 2018? If not - can I use the Weather Cloud data instead for pwsdashboard? And if not, are there other similar things as pwsdashboard, that can utilize Weather Cloud data instead of WU?

Sorry - probably newbie questions...

Thanks  :-)

The PWS_Dashboard can only show the data which is available from your weather-program or weather-net.

WU does no record or returns indoor temperatures.
If you have another weather-net which returns that data => no problem to add that network for use with the PWS_Dashboard.
But such a weather-network needs to have a documented API and should allow frequent data-retrievals, every 5 or 10 minutes.

The link you referred to is for Ambient weather-net, they digest and return indoor temp/hum. Also WL.com has indoor temps.

weathercloud.net has only the retrieval of .csv files.
No retrieval of current data in a timely way => https://app.weathercloud.net/account/upgrade

I am not aware of a solution for this station-type http://sainlogic.com/plus/view.php?aid=13
