Weather APIs Integration | Named Credentials & External Credentials in

In this video I will show you an API integration using a third party Weather APIs. I will create a Lightning Web Component and show you the weather based on the selected city.
Also I will show you how you can use Named Credentials & External Credentials.

Very informative. Can you please also a make a complete video on Named credentials with OAuth 2.0. It's really confusing 😟

[@SalesforceBolt]

Yes it is confusing, I am planning a separate video as well!

Appreciate you work helpful for me , i have request one video about lightning datatable. in datatable how to apply type attribute so the values comes as same sized button irrespect of length looking forward for that videos

[@SalesforceBolt]

Sure, I will add it in the queue.

Precise and to the point. Wonderful tutorial to exercise LWC and Integration topics at the same time. Just an observation: If we don't give anything in input and press the button we still get 'Sunny' climate. I verified this a lot of times. To fix this, I rephrased the apex method as follows and now it gives error when nothing is given in input and still weather is searched: public static string getWeather(String city){ if (city != null) { Http http = new Http(); HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest(); request.setEndpoint('callout:WeatherAPI/current.json?q='+city); request.setMethod('GET'); HttpResponse response = http.send(request); if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) { return response.getBody(); } } return ''; EDIT 2: I also fixed searching weather for cities where there are two words...for eg: "New York" or "Los Angeles" which does not work with current code. I used regex for this in Javascript. I added a property 'encodedInputText' in the JS file and also tweaked the buttonClick function as below: buttonClick(event){ //REGEX for considering the spaces given in the input and spaces in City Name const input = this.template.querySelector("lightning-input").value; const regex = / {2,}/g; const correctedInput = input.replaceAll(regex, " ").trim(); this.encodedInputText = encodeURI(correctedInput); getWeather({city : this.encodedInputText}) .then((response)=>{ console.log("in then"); //parse received JSON let parsedData = JSON.parse(response); >>>> Rest is same >>>>>

If your hardcoding key into custom header, principal becomes redundant since it's meant to refered using merge field syntax in custom header value to hide secrets.

[@SalesforceBolt]

Thanks for noticing it. Yes I agree, I missed it in video but added it in the blog post for the same. www.salesforcebolt.com/2023/07/weather-apis-integration-named.html

[@ikec7941]

Great 👍 Thanks

[@ujjwalsharma3285]

Hi, Great stuff! If possible can you create or suggest series on salesforce integration? Videos on youtube are little confusing and don't implement end to end. Most of the videos just demo using postman.

[@SalesforceBolt]

Sure I will add it in the queue!

[@Shaik_Abdul_01]

Hi @Salesforce Bolt, Thanks a million for sharing useful Content. Iam encountering an error "API Key is disabled ", Could u pls guide me How to resolve it.

[@SalesforceBolt]

Hi are you still having the same issue?

[@dattasoham]

Opencage API is not working using Named Credential and External Credential

[@SalesforceBolt]

What's the error in the console?

[@TK-vt3ep]

How do certification works here?

[@SalesforceBolt]

Can you please elaborate your questions?

[@TK-vt3ep]

@@SalesforceBolt so i have to use https end point to generate token which i will use as bearer authorization for subsequent callout of api’s. Now i am configuring named credential with external credential but then it keeps giving me 503 error, later on it was brought up that the cert i have in named credential should be client cert. So how do i use that now? The api team gave the cert but how do i use for my named credential? I know i have to import it under certifications but do i need to make changes in my apex code too for using that cert?

Have you copied the exact code from code snippet?

[@anupambasak2000]

Hi@@SalesforceBolt! Previously it worked for me... I fetched data also... But today I tried again but it is showing me ------ response: {"error":{"code":1002,"message":"API key is invalid or not provided."}}

[@SalesforceBolt]

@@anupambasak2000 please check the key if it got expired.

[@anupambasak2000]

@@SalesforceBolt It wasn't expired... My bad I used other name in Custom Headers... Later it worked... But could you try using OpenWeatherMap API and NewsAPI with External Named Credentials? I was integrating these but it was not working... Finally I did using Custom Metadata but how to do with External Credentials, I'm still desperate to know...
