AQI PM25 missing in data on website and in API (outdoor) #50

I have a WS-2902D and just added a PM25 outdoor sensor.

The sensor is reporting properly on website and API, I can see the ug/m3 pollutant concentration value, however there is no AQI derived from PM25 data.

If I download the CSV, I get PM2.5 Outdoor and PM2.5 Outdoor 24 Hour Average

In the API, I receive pm25 and pm25_24h

However per documentation here, I should also be receiving aqi_pm25 and aqi_pm25_24h

you are correct. the documentation is wrong here. Unfortunately the PM25 outdoor sensor does not calculate/send aqi. It's not hard to calculate though. Here is an article that has the common calculations: https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/difference-pm2-5-aqi-measurements/
