Exporting Data

Former Member over 7 years ago

I suggest to add functionality in windows to export raw data (e.g. Heart Rate, stress, sleeping pattern,..etc.) for post processing.
the format can be as simple as CSV.

+1.
In my opinion, easy to do for most of the data, so why isn't it there? For instance, since I cant really compare data sets of different data types (steps, stairs, resting pulse, VO2, weight, activity intensity) over time in the GC interface.

I would like to be able to export detailed health data such as all-day heart rate and all-day stress (found under health stats in Garmin Connect). Right now when I export it only gives me daily averages.

Seconded. Or are they hidden in the raw data FIT files that the ANT software can decode into CSV and then to a spreadsheet?

If you suggest a report layout such as column names and row frequency (one row per second, one per hour) you are more likely to have you request met.

Agreed. This seems to be missing.

Yes, you can export the daily data in the FIT file format. You can export it on the Daily Summary page - see the cogwheel symbol up right, and select the option Export Original.

Trux, thanks for the tip. Is there a simple way to convert a .FIT file to .CSV or Excel? I've searched online -- it seems it requires a Python script, or code that runs on Java or from Github.

The .FIT file by itself isn't readable by Excel.

trux, THANK YOU... that was exactly what I needed. I was able to convert the .FIT file to .CSV and get the data I needed.

I have one more hurdle. Right now I can download detailed Stress numbers for each day (in the wellness files). How can I download it for ALL days? I've already done the "Data Management > Export your data" option from Garmin Connect web. I've scoured all the files and I can't seem to find the Stress data. Any suggestions? I've opened a support case with Garmin but haven't heard back yet.

I really appreciate your help... I feel like I'm very close to what I need!
