Obs ID & User ID that are shown when I edit site
So which do I use to upload data via code?

Well I've been in touch with the Met Office via email & they tell me I should be able to see my AWS Six digit pin number?
Fat Chance!
I've sent them a screenshot showing all the various codes I can see, but they haven't got back to me as yet, so I'm stumped at updating my weather data automatically
& have to resort to using their WOW forms at the moment (Pain)

I do think the team at the met office need their help scripts updating, as the standard answer to my question is now out of date
and it nearly made me throw the towel in, however searching this group, I stumbled across some info which helped me sort it out plus a bit of guesswork!
So let's hope some WOW team support people actually read this & take my humble advicE?
Apart from that I'm enjoying taking part!

Hello Jay
Thank you for the feedback. It's unfortunate we weren't able to respond at the time you were having the issues but I'm glad you found some advice on the forum to assist you in progressing. Apologies the documentation was not helpful and we do certainly intend to update it - what specifically was the out of date information please?
Regards
James
WOW Team

The information from the support page may need updating?
======================
Example URL:
02+10%3A32%3A55&winddir=230&windspeedmph=12&windgustmph=12&windgustdir=25&humidity=90&dewptf=68.2&tempf=70&rainin=0&dailyrainin=5&baromin=29.1&soiltempf=25&soilmoisture=25&visibility=25&softwaretype=weathersoftware1.0
======================
I think the six figure siteid is now the one shown when you log in & click on MySites select your site and it is under the map in brackets under your site name.
This is not a six figure number, but a group of five alphanumeric codes.
The siteAuthenticationKey I used is the one I was given when I registered with datapoint, so the other two numbers shown when you expand Site Details
(Observation Id & User ID) may be confusing the issue?
