Authentication

To use the Open Weather Map GraphQL endpoint, you need to authenticate your requests with our service via RapidAPI and Open Weather Map.

RapidAPI

You can access the Open Weather Map API through RapidAPI. See the RapidAPI Open Weather Map API for more information.

You will need to provide the x-rapidapi-key header with your RapidAPI key. You can find your RapidAPI key in the RapidAPI Playground.

Open Weather Map

So we can retrieve the data from the Open Weather Map API, you need to provide your Open Weather Map appid. You can do this in one of two ways:

1. Include the appid in the request header as x-owm-appid.
2. Pass the appid as an argument in the api field.

query {
  api(appid: "<APP_ID>") {
    # ... rest of the query
  }
}

You only need to provide the appid using one of the methods above.
