### Steps

The example below shows three message variants based on the current weather conditions at the user's ZIP code. We use AccuWeather's *Locations* and *Current Conditions* APIs.

You make two API calls — the first to get the user's location and the second to get the current weather conditions at that location.

1. Go to step 2 of campaign creation.
2. Call AccuWeather's *Locations* API and store the location details in a new variable called `location_info`. The `Key` is a useful variable as it is used in the next request. For more information, see the [API response reference](https://apidev.accuweather.com/developers/locationsAPIguide#Cities).
   ```jinja wrap theme={null}
   {% set location_info = "https://api.accuweather.com/locations/v1/postalcodes/" + {{UserAttribute['zipcode']}} + "/search?q=" + {{UserAttribute['zipcode']}} + "&apikey=" + <your AccuWeather app key here> %}
   ```
   <Note>
     If you do not capture a `zipcode` user attribute, you can use the user's city instead.
   </Note>
3. Call AccuWeather's *Current Conditions* API using the `location_info` variable and store the result in a new variable called `local_weather`. For more information, see the [API response reference](https://apidev.accuweather.com/developers/currentConditionsAPIGuide#TopCities).
   ```jinja wrap theme={null}
   {% set local_weather = "https://api.accuweather.com/currentconditions/v1/" + location_info[0].key + "?apikey=" + <your AccuWeather app key here> %}
   ```
4. Define your campaign content based on the local weather. For example:
   * If local weather is *Sunny* → "Get a sunscreen".
   * If local weather is *Rain* → "Get an umbrella".

5. Print the output in the template or use [Personalized Previews](https://www.moengage.com/docs/user-guide/campaigns-and-channels/getting-started/message-personalization/personalized-preview) to preview.

If the API response returns `Rain` for `{{local_weather[0].WeatherText}}`, the user receives the push message "It's raining. Get an umbrella".
