I just got my rainmachine - love it.  How do I get an API for some of the other weather services?

Also, I noticed the suggested times are very, very long - is that normal?

One last question - does the rainmachine want to water everyday?

  There are several articles about API on our knowledgebase:

  https://support.rainmachine.com/hc/en-us/articles/228022248-Controlling-RainMachine-through-REST-API

  https://support.rainmachine.com/hc/en-us/articles/228157648-RainMachine-REST-API-Python-implementation

  https://github.com/sprinkler/rainmachine-developer-resources

  
  If you want to use a different weather forecast with the RainMachine, see this article:

  https://support.rainmachine.com/hc/en-us/articles/228620727-How-to-integrate-RainMachine-with-different-weather-forecast-services

   

  The suggested times are based upon the settings for that zone which include the sprinkler head too. Some sprinkler heads have long watering times.

  The RainMachine can be set to water everyday, every X days and other modes like odd or even days. 

  Hope this helps!
