# OpenWeather API

The OpenWeather API provides current weather data, forecasts, and historical weather data. Developers use it to integrate weather information into their applications. It's useful for apps needing location-based weather updates.

## Working with OpenWeather API

This skill uses the Membrane CLI to interact with OpenWeather API. Membrane handles authentication and credentials refresh automatically — so you can focus on the integration logic rather than auth plumbing.

### Install the CLI

Install the Membrane CLI so you can run `membrane` from the terminal:

```bash
npm install -g @membranehq/cli
```

### First-time setup

```bash
membrane login --tenant
```

A browser window opens for authentication.

**Headless environments:** Run the command, copy the printed URL for the user to open in a browser, then complete with `membrane login complete <code>`.

### Connecting to OpenWeather API

1. **Create a new connection:**
   ```bash
   membrane search openweather-api --elementType=connector --json
   ```
   Take the connector ID from `output.items[0].element?.id`, then:
   ```bash
   membrane connect --connectorId=CONNECTOR_ID --json
   ```
   The user completes authentication in the browser. The output contains the new connection id.
