Daily forecast request examples
By default, the
forecast.days
endpoint returns 10 days of data, starting from the current hour. You can scope
your request to a particular number of days using the days parameter.
The following example requests daily forecast information for the next two days for Mountain View, CA:
curl -X GET "https://weather.googleapis.com/v1/forecast/days:lookup?key=YOUR_API_KEY&location.latitude=37.4220 &location.longitude=-122.0841 &days=2"
In the response, the interval object indicates each day of information:

Specify number of days to return per page
You can specify the number of days of data to return per page using the
pageSize URL parameter. The default value is five days of forecast information
per page.
Responses with multiple pages of information include a nextPageToken. To view
the next page of information, pass the nextPageToken value into the
pageToken parameter in your request.
The following example requests six days of weather forecast data for Mountain View, CA, with three days of data per page:
curl -X GET "https://weather.googleapis.com/v1/forecast/days:lookup?key=YOUR_API_KEY&location.latitude=37.4220 &location.longitude=-122.0841 &days=6&pageSize=3"
