Hi @WFmarketing and those wondering about implementing this,
I was able to implement the IFTTT applet. For those who havnt tried it and wonder about it I am posting what I learned in the process. I have learned that I didnt need to set anything up in google sheets first. But I did already have a google login using my gmail email address and password. When there are 2000 rows (one every minute) in the sheet (even if I copy the headers into the first row leaving space for 1999 rows of records) the first workbook containing one sheet is left as it is and a new workbook containing one sheet named “Smart Weather Station Data (1)” begins storing rows.
The data has the units of measure within the cell to make it easy to read. Which means they are text and to use the data as values the contents of the cells require parsing which is easy (for me) with extra formulas if required.
For my purpose of analysing historical data if required for a particular point in time when I can not access the data using the weatherflow App these google sheets can provide my history.
To use the sheets for displaying history will require some work but I can easily imagine how I could do it if I wanted to spend the time but I will experiment with other storage and display options first.
Several have commented about the problem of the 2000 row limit from IFTTT. I discovered a suggestion how to get around it by using a script which copies the rows from the active IFTTT sheet onto an archive sheet and deletes the rows from the IFTTT sheet to maintain it less than 2000 rows.
Summary review of the IFTTT applet is that it is free, easy, no other hardware is required, no computer needs to be left running, and provides our one minute history stored for review if required. It is not so easy to find and display a graph of that history but it is possible if you understand spreadsheets. And if you are keen it would be possible to have scripts running to analyse and respond to the data coming in.
Thankyou @WFmarketing
