Authentication & Access Keys

Learn how to create an account, sign in, access the dashboard, create an application/client, and use the weather APIs.

Get Started

This guide walks you through the initial setup: creating an account, signing in, accessing the dashboard, creating an application/client, and using the weather APIs.

1. Create an Account

Follow these steps to register a new user:

  1. Navigate to the Login page.
  2. Select Register.
  3. Provide the required details:
    • Full name
    • Email address
    • Password
    • Organization or team name (optional)
  4. Submit the form.

After registration, you will be redirected back to the login page.

2. Sign In

To access your dashboard:

  1. Open the Login page.
  2. Enter your registered email and password.
  3. Click Login.

If authentication succeeds, you will be redirected to the user Dashboard.

3. Dashboard Overview

The dashboard provides access to all available features:

  • Manage applications/clients
  • Generate API keys
  • Access weather API documentation
  • Monitor usage
  • Manage account settings

The dashboard serves as the central hub for development and API integration.

Authentication

curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.climateforte.com/v1/weather/forecast?apikey=API_KEY' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json'
curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.climateforte.com/v1/weather/forcast' \
  --header 'apikey: API_KEY' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json'

4. Create an Application / Client

Before using any APIs, create a client application:

  1. Open the Applications / Clients section.
  2. Click Create New Client.
  3. Enter:
    • Application name
    • Description (optional)
  4. Submit the form.

Upon creation, the system will generate:

  • client_id
  • client_secret
  • Access scopes
  • Optional rate limits

Store these credentials securely. They are required for API authentication.

5. Access the Weather APIs

Once a client is created, you can begin integrating the weather APIs.
