How can I add precipitation data in OPENSTUDIO?

Hi everyone, it’s been a few days since I am trying to solve this problem but I didn’t find a way yet, so I hope that you can help me 😊

I am studying the performance of a green roof on a building using Openstudio but I didn't find a way to add precipitation data in the software. I've seen that there is the possibility to add precipitations data through the object Site:Precipitation in Energyplus, but I don't understand then how can I import these data in Openstudio. Is there a way to import the precipitation data set in Energyplus in Openstudio or another way to add precipitation data in Openstudio? I’ve seen that someone suggested to apply Energyplus measure in Openstudio but I didn’t really understand how to do it and if it works. I want to run a simulation of my building and see the results in openstudio, so I am not interested in evaluating it in Energyplus. Do you have any suggestion? thank you so much :)
