For Agents
Programmatically get real-time weather, get daily weather forecast. Covers 12 operations with bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to real-time weather, I want to daily weather forecast, Search for hourly weather forecast, Find all minutely precipitation forecast
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the QWeather API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with QWeather API API.
Get real-time weather
Access QWeather API data enrichment resources via REST API
Query QWeather API endpoints with structured JSON responses
Authenticate requests with bearer credentials managed by Jentic
GET STARTED
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for data enrichment only.
Location-based weather data API providing real-time weather, forecasts, air quality, weather warnings, weather indices, minutely precipitation, tropical cyclones, ocean data, astronomy, and geolocation services. The API exposes 12 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Access QWeather API resources programmatically via REST
Patterns agents use QWeather API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Data Enrichment Operations
Use the QWeather API to perform data enrichment operations programmatically. The API provides 12 endpoints covering core functionality including get real-time weather, get daily weather forecast, get hourly weather forecast.
Call GET /v7/weather/now to get real-time weather
Automated GeoAPI Management
Automate geoapi operations by combining multiple QWeather API endpoints. Agents can get daily weather forecast and then get hourly weather forecast in a single workflow.
Call GET /v7/weather/{days}d to get daily weather forecast, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call QWeather API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'get real-time weather', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
12 endpoints — location-based weather data api providing real-time weather, forecasts, air quality, weather warnings, weather indices, minutely precipitation, tropical cyclones, ocean data, astronomy, and geolocation services.

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
QWeather API bearer credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'get real-time weather') and Jentic returns the matching QWeather API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct QWeather API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using QWeather API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the QWeather API use?
The QWeather API uses a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I get real-time weather with the QWeather API?
Yes. Use the GET /v7/weather/now endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the QWeather API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I get real-time weather through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'get real-time weather'. Jentic returns the matching QWeather API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the QWeather API have?
The QWeather API exposes 12 endpoints covering geoapi, real-time weather, weather forecast operations.
/v7/indices/{days}d
Get weather lifestyle indices
/v7/air/now
Get real-time air quality
/v7/air/{days}d
Get air quality forecast
