Creating a Future Temperature Graph

I am trying to create a past, present, future graph of the outdoor temperature vs hour.
I have a template sensor containing .JSON data of future, hourly weather conditions that I would like to use with “custom:apexcharts-card” like this: Display future values in a graph

I am having issues getting the “data_generator:” portion to work.
The JSON is formatted slightly different from the example so that I cannot figure out how to modify the Card Configuration to work, or modify my data to use the example.

Here is my config:

rest:
  - authentication: basic
    # username: "admin"
    # password: "password"
    scan_interval: 300
    resource: https://api.weather.com/v3/wx/forecast/hourly/2day?geocode=41.1011635,-85.1276185&format=json&units=e&language=en-US&apiKey={privatekey}
    sensor:
      - name: "Weather Forecast - Hourly"
        unique_id: "weather_forecast_hourly"
        # json_attributes_path: "$."
        value_template: "ok"
        json_attributes:
          - "validTimeLocal"
          - "temperature"
          - "temperatureDewPoint"
          - "relativeHumidity"
          - "precipChance"
          - "qpf"
