Is there a way to manually enter body fat percentage data point into the Garmin Connect app?

Thank you for the help, interesting that body fat isn’t used in calorie calculation. 

Why would Garmin not use muscle mass in calories burned?  Metabolism is a key fitness factor and target.  I am trying to love my epix, but this very elementary approach to the data makes all of it invalid.

I hate to say it but Money! The only way to input anything other than body weight is to buy the Garmin Scales. Which looking at reviews ares that great or accurate. The want to purchase the Withing Smart scales but Garmin won’t allow third party data into the app!

Rather annoying!

How do you create the .fit file? I am new to this.

thx

You do not need any .fit file. You can use a plain-text CSV file - use for example Notepad (if on Windows) or another simple text editor, type the text in it, and save the file with the extension ".csv" instead of  ".txt". Or rename it afterwards in the file manager, if the editor does not save it with the extension . csv. Once done, you can import it at https://connect.garmin.com/modern/import-data. 

Can muscle & water percentages be uploaded along with bone weight?

I do not know about other way than either using the Garmin Index 2 scale. Perhaps importing from MyFitnessPal could work, or there might be some 3rd party apps, but I have no personal experience with it.
