get_ambient_weather

Downloads weather data from an Ambient Weather station. The workflow connects to the Ambient Weather REST API and requests data for the input time range. The input geometry will be used to find a device inside the region. If not devices are found in the geometry, the workflow will fail. Connection to the API requires an API key and an App key.
