Weather forecast provided by OpenWeatherMap, One Call API 3.0: [https://openweathermap.org](https://openweathermap.org) . To access the OpenWearherMap One Call API you need to register here and get a API key. API key is then entered into the corresponding graphic object property.

> ℹ️ To register you need to enter a valid email address. You will then receive a welcome email and a link to click to confirm your email and complete your registration. To register One Call API 3.0, you must also enter a payment method/card.

One instance of the object calls the API approximately 50 times per day. Changing language, location, or units displayed will cause additional calls.

> ⚠️ **Free One Call API 1.0 used in previous versions of the object was deprecated on 6/2024. **Therefore only One Call API 3.0  is supported since DailyWeatherFromOpenWeatherMapBase version 1.04. One Call API 3.0 is paid, but the first 1000 API calls per day are free, and only calls above this limit are charged. However, it is also possible to set a maximum number of calls per day in the administration of your account in Open Weather Map pages, i.e. if you put a limit of 1000, you can use the service for free.

> ⚠️ 
> ⚠️ To avoid exceeding the quota of 1000 free calls, we recommend using one API key in a **maximum of 15 instances of the graphic object**.

If you want different icon sizes, download the *weathericons-regular-webfont.ttf* font from the above page, install it on your computer and then enter the desired font size into the appropriate property of the graphic object.


> ⚠️ The *DailyWeatherFromOpenWeatherMap *graphic object uses the new **HTTPGet **command for reading the weather forecast, which is **available from FW version 15**. If you have panels with older FW (version 8) in your project, you can use the *DailyWeatherFromOpenWeatherMapForOldFirmwares *object. However,** you must have at least one CUEunit** (controller or touchpanel) in your project, with **FW 15** or later.
