GraphQL AccessALPHA

Access Weather Seasons through GraphQL to combine it with other API calls in a single request. Query only the weather seasons data you need with precise field selection, and orchestrate complex data fetching workflows.

Test Weather Seasons in the GraphQL Explorer to confirm availability and experiment with queries.

Credit Cost: Each API called in your GraphQL query consumes its standard credit cost.

GraphQL Endpoint
POST https://api.apiverve.com/v1/graphql
GraphQL Query Example
query {
  weatherseasons(
    input: {
      year: 2024
    }
  ) {
    year
    timezone
    march_equinox
    june_solstice
    september_equinox
    december_solstice
  }
}

Note: Authentication is handled via the x-api-key header in your GraphQL request, not as a query parameter.

CORS Support

The Weather Seasons API accepts cross-origin requests from any origin, so it can be called directly from browser-based applications without a proxy. See CORS support →

Rate Limiting

Weather Seasons requests are throttled per minute on the Free plan and unthrottled on paid plans. Exceeding the limit returns 429 Too Many Requests; rate-limit usage is reported in the X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. See per-plan limits and best practices →

Error Codes

The Weather Seasons API uses standard HTTP status codes — 200 on success, 400 for invalid parameters, 401 for missing or invalid keys, 403 for insufficient credits, 429 for rate-limit exhaustion, and 500/503 for server-side issues. Each error response includes an X-Request-ID header you can quote when contacting support. See full error handling guide →

SDKs for Weather Seasons

Official Weather Seasons packages on npm, PyPI, NuGet, and JitPack — plus a Postman collection and an OpenAPI spec. See the SDK guide →

No-Code Integrations

Weather Seasons works with Zapier, Make, Pipedream, n8n, and Power Automate using the same API key. See setup guides →

How many credits does Weather Seasons cost?

Can I use Weather Seasons from a browser?
Yes! The Weather Seasons API supports CORS with wildcard configuration, so you can call it directly from browser-based JavaScript without needing a proxy server. See the CORS section above for details.
What happens if I exceed my Weather Seasons credit limit?

When you reach your monthly credit limit, Weather Seasons API requests will return an error until you upgrade your plan or wait for the next billing cycle. You'll receive notifications at 80% and 95% usage to give you time to upgrade if needed.
