Open-Meteo is a free, open weather API offering historical and forecast data, including temperature and precipitation, for any location worldwide.
clariBI reads Open-Meteo through its public REST API: daily weather history for the locations you choose. You search a place by name, clariBI resolves its coordinates, and the connector reads the daily series read-only. No API key is required.

What gets synced
clariBI pulls daily weather history for the locations you select through the Open-Meteo REST API, lands it as a preprocessed dataset, and refreshes it on your schedule. Access is read-only.
For each selected location, clariBI syncs daily maximum and minimum temperature and precipitation, then builds an insights dashboard you can query, extend, or pull into reports.
clariBI only ever reads. Open-Meteo is an open data source, so there is no key or account to manage.
Questions across your other data
Once your records are synced, the AI engine can join them to the rest of your business data. A few examples:
| Pairing | Question | How clariBI answers |
