Update interval erratic

[woodyl]

I'm using this endpoint: 'https://api.ambientweather.net/v1'. The data update intervals I'm seeing are erratic. They range from 5 minutes to 10 minutes or more. Is there another endpoint that provides more frequent updates? Is there another way to get more frequent and predictable updates?

This is just a client library, I don't maintain the API endpoints.

The full API documentation is at https://ambientweather.docs.apiary.io/#

I do know that in the Facebook group for the API, I do see a lot of reports about data issues, so I wouldn't trust this API for anything more than hobbyist ventures.

OK, thanks. The documentation is unclear on that. It mentions a "/devices" endpoint that provides more frequent updates, but it doesn't really spell out how to use it. I can set the endpoint to 'https://api.ambientweather.net/v1/devices' and it works, but it seems to have about the same update interval as 'https://api.ambientweather.net/v1'.
