The metoffice weather platform uses the Met Office's [DataPoint API][datapoint] for weather data.
To add the Met Office weather platform to your installation, you'll need to register for a free API key at the link above and then add the following to your configuration.yaml file:
weather:
- platform: metoffice
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
Configuration variables:
- api_key (Required): Your personal API key from the Datapoint website.
This platform is an alternative to the [`metoffice`](/components/sensor.metoffice/) sensor. The weather platform is easier to configure but less customizable.
