Air quality

Air quality for any place: the official AQI of the nearest reporting area in the US, Canada or Mexico (observed now by pollutant, plus today's and tomorrow's forecasts with action days and the forecaster's discussion), and worldwide the median PM2.5 and PM10 of nearby open low-cost sensors with US AQI and European AQI bands, temperature and humidity. Sources: EPA AirNow (public domain), Sensor.Community (ODbL).

Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Parameters

Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).

Example

curl "https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/air-quality" \
  -H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY"

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/air-quality",
    params={},
    headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json()

const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/air-quality");


const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json();

Response

A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
