System 28621 — v5/v7 (Weather Device import) not populating since midnight today, System 111702 unaffected - SOLVED

@bankstownbloke

System 28621 has received no Main Temperature (v5) or Extended v7 (Solar Radiation) data at any point today — Live Data table is empty for both fields from 00:00 America/Los_Angeles on 2026-07-18, including after sunrise when insolation should be well above zero.

System 111702, using the identical Ambient Weather App Key/App Key/API Key and identical Weather Device configuration (same device, same field mappings), has received v5 and v7 normally all day with no gaps — and has more concurrent extended-parameter writers than 28621 (v8/v11/v12 from IoTaWatt, v9/v10 from a Backup Switch, in addition to the Weather Device import).

Checked and confirmed identical between both systems:

  • Ambient Weather API Test button returns valid live data (tempf, solarradiation present) for the shared credentials
  • Weather Device settings (API key, App key, device name, Main Temperature enabled, Extended v7 = Solar Radiation) — identical
  • Extended Data label/unit/axis config for v7 — identical

v1–v4 on 28621 continue posting normally via my own REST integration (unrelated to this — that data source is separate from the Weather Device import).

No changes were made to 28621’s Weather Device or Extended Data settings before this started. Can you check whether the scheduled Weather Device import job for system 28621 is running?

Thanks — happy to provide anything else that would help track this down.

[EDIT]
“Screenshots attached: last successful v5/v7 data (07/17 23:55 and 20:30) compared to today’s Live Production table showing no data since midnight (07/18 16:30).”

@bankstownbloke Following up — this has now been going on for 5 days with no v5/v7 data on 28621 (111702 continues to be unaffected on identical Weather Device config). Not urgent, but wanted to make sure it didn’t slip through given the Problems queue volume. Happy to grab fresh screenshots or run any additional test if that helps narrow down whether the scheduled import job for 28621 is running. Thanks again for the help back in June on the 28621/111702 aggregation issue — appreciate you keeping an eye on these two systems.

“Set both the primary generation device and weather devices to NONE in the site configurations and saved, completely stripping the devices from the site for several hours to force a total backend database flush.”

Looking at the latest date (2026-07-25) both temperature (v5) and Solar Radiation (v7) is available.

The error returned from Ambient Weather is above-user-rate-limit.

Sharing the API key across multiple systems would have caused the limit to be exceeded.
