Unable to import weight data to Garmin Connect. An error occurred

Hi,

No matter what I do (I've checked the suggestions here as well), I cannot upload my weight data into Garmin Connect.

I've changed the format, layout etc. no to avail. Anybody have an idea why it does not accept the .csv file? Here is the latest format I used, and still having an issue.

Date,Weight,BMI,Fat

19-11-2019,89.9,0.00,0.00
15-02-2020,96.45,0.00,0.00
29-02-2020,95.2,0.00,0.00
04-03-2020,95.3,0.00,0.00
22-03-2020,92,0.00,0.00
13-04-2020,95.8,0.00,0.00

  • This is a sample CSV file that works:

    Body
    Date,Weight,BMI,Fat
    "2022-11-03","71.6","22.6","14.4"

    Your file is missing the first line with "Body", and there is an excess blank line after the header (though I am not sure whether it really matters). Double-quoting values is not mandatory, as long as you do not use commas within the values, so with a decimal point the values may remain unquoted.

    There can be multiple lines of data, but the first 2 header lines appear just once. Use a plain-text editor such as Notepad for creating the file. Do not use any rich-text editors like Word or WordPad. And avoid Excel.

  • Thank you so much!!! This worked... finally.
