Sensors used for an activity

I would love to be able to see which sensors were used for a particular activity, and to be able to label those sensors in Garmin Connect, so I would know which sensor provides HR, Cadence, Sped etc.

  • I dont know how easy that would be. For me, I have the Vector 3 on the bike along with a speed/cadence sensor. If, for some reason the Vector 3s stop sending cadence mid ride for whatever reason then my Edge 820 would use the speed/cadence sensor. Something with speed. If I loose GPS it would use the speed/cadence sensor to display speed.
  • I am forced to find hacks to display a connected sensor...

    e.g I have a data field with R/L balance just to check if the chest HRM is connected or the optical one is been used.

    Please Garmin, let us know which sensor is been used

  • The data response from the server shows the following data in the subset "sensors" of the JSON structure, when you open the URL https://connect.garmin.com/modern/proxy/activity-service/activity/4792409645 (replace the numeric Activity ID as needed). Hope it helps.
