Good idea.

Thanks, I’ll try it.

Hi all,

does anyone know, if you can also request the data for a specific date and time? e.g. the azimute and altitude for the date: “2024-12-24” at “22:00”? How is the syntax of the api-call to ipgeolocation?

Thanks for your post. I found that I don’t have to keep the lat/lon in secrets if I do this:

  params:
    apiKey: !secret ipgeolocation_api
    latitude: >
      {{ state_attr('zone.home', 'latitude') | round(2) | string }}
    longitude: >
      {{ state_attr('zone.home', 'longitude') | round(2) | string }}

OK…did now know (at the time) that these could also accept templates :slight_smile:
