Request

Path parameters

Query parameters

Example:2021-12-31T19:59:59Z

Timestamp from which to begin returning weather data in a 1 day range. Because weather data is returned in reverse chronological order, all returned weather reports will be from before this timestamp. If unspecified, weather is returned starting from now up to or less than the user history limit, normally 14 days.

return_nearby_weatherboolean

If the requested airport does not have a weather conditions report then the weather for the nearest airport within 30 miles will be returned instead.
