CDSAPI setup



The Climate Data Store (CDS) Application Program Interface (API) is a service providing programmatic access to CDS, ADS and CEMS Early Warning DS data. In this page you will find explanations and examples showing how to use the CDS API.

For troubleshooting, check Common Error Messages for CDS Requests



For advanced capabilities, check the New API package for advanced users section.




Windows users


Please read How to install and use CDS API on Windows




macOS users

Linux users
Please proceed as follows:



1. Setup the CDS Api key

Here is how to setup the CDS Api key:
If you do not have an account yet, please register

If you are not logged in, please login

Once logged in, copy the code displayed below to the file $HOME/.cdsapirc
(in your Unix/Linux environment)

url:https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/apikey:<PERSONAL-ACCESS-TOKEN>


2. Install the CDS API client


The CDS API client is a Python based library. It provides support for Python 3.

You can install the CDS API client via the package management system pip, by running on Unix/Linux the command below.

$ pip install "cdsapi>=0.7.7"
Use of latest version available is highly recommended.



3. Use the CDS API client for data access


Once the CDS API client is installed, it can be used to request data from the datasets listed in the CDS, ADS, ECDS, XDS and CEMS Early Warning DS catalogues.

One must agree to the Terms of Use of a dataset before downloading any data out of it. This step must be done manually from the dataset page (at the bottom of the download form).

At the bottom of each dataset download form, press the "Show API request code" button to display a Python code snippet that can be used to run the manually built request. The API call must have this syntax:

import cdsapi client = cdsapi.Client() dataset = "<DATASET-SHORT-NAME>" request = { <SELECTION-REQUEST> } target = "<TARGET-FILE>" client.retrieve(dataset, request, target)


Example
import cdsapi client = cdsapi.Client() dataset = 'reanalysis-era5-pressure-levels' request = { 'product_type': ['reanalysis'], 'variable': ['geopotential'], 'year': ['2024'], 'month': ['03'], 'day': ['01'], 'time': ['13:00'], 'pressure_level': ['1000'], 'data_format': 'grib', } target = 'download.grib' client.retrieve(dataset, request, target)



New API package for advanced users


A new API package — ecmwf-datastores-client — is now available, with advanced features: metadata retrieval, synchronous or asynchronous job submission, REST API.

For setup instructions, see the documentation. Technical details are available in the Retrieve API, Catalogue API and User profile API documentation. Please note that REST API is recommended for advanced users and is not supported.

Also provided are Jupyter Notebooks Tutorials which include code in Python and content in Markdown to provide clear, engaging and practical instructions on using some of the most popular ecmwf-datastores-client functions.

ecmwf-datastores-client, part of the ECMWF earthkit.data package, is Incubating and subject to ECMWF's guidelines on Software Maturity. This means that the new API package is mostly feature-complete and the interface is mostly stable. If this software is to be used in operational systems you are strongly advised to use a released tag in your system configuration, and you should be willing to accept incoming changes and bug fixes that require adaptations on your part.

Users are not requested to migrate to using the new API package at this time and may continue to use the existing cdsapi package until further notice.
