What is it?
The SRG-SSR Weather REST API (commercial use) allows you to get weather forecasts.
After providing the decimal latitude and longitude parameters of the chosen location, the API sends a response that contains a JSON or CSV object based on the request with the weather forecast of the location for the chosen time period (hourly, 5 day).
Example value:
- Zürich latitude: 47.36667
- Zürich longitude: 8.5

How it works?
This API consists of a bunch of GET methods that you can request for weather data of a particular location of Switzerland applied for a given time frame. After successful authorization, the API sends back the requested data as a JSON/CSV object.
In the interest of the customer, we would like to provide interested companies with a so-called sample data record for the "Weekly" and "Hourly" options before they log in, so that they can better understand what data is included.
