I have done modelling for Univariate timeseries but while using multivariate time series ( independent features) not able to achieve result. please let me know if anybody have used .
please find reference link

You just need to ensure that the model you forecast with has a design matrix covering both the observed and forecasted timesteps. That is, you'd build a model including a component along the lines of
sts.LinearRegression(
design_matrix=tf.concat([temperature_for_observed_timesteps,
temperature_for_forecast_timesteps], axis=-2),
name='temperature_effect')
(ignoring any centering and reshaping logic) and then pass that model to the forecast method.
If you don't have access to future values of the external regressor when you first build the model, a useful pattern is to encapsulate model building in a method def build_model(observed_time_series, design_matrix) that returns a StructuralTimeSeries model object. Then you can build an initial model with just the observed time steps in order to fit parameters, and then remake the model later once you have the regressors for the forecast steps on hand.
