I agree that finding your site ID on WOW is far from obvious. I managed to do it from the WOW homepage (wow.metoffice.gov.uk), searching for stations at my location (in my case, Holsworthy, UK), then selecting my site from the map displayed and clicking on “Show Full Observation”. The site ID is in parentheses (in my case, 935666001, but mine is a pre-2016 site - your site ID is probably much longer) below the site name (in my case, GCHolsworthy). Quite why the met office makes it so hard to find is a bit of a mystery.
To find your PIN, you need to log in to wow.metoffice.org.uk, then select My Sites, then Edit Site. Your PIN is then down the way, labelled Authentication Key. Hope that’s helpful.
