Garmin Export data always missing some activities

I am using the full data export from Garmin to do my own dashboards.

Every time I request an export, some activities are missing in the export, and not always the same! What happens with this export option? How can you guarantee to export always ALL activities?

Thanks,

Rui

  • some activities are missing in the export,

    Assuming you've done this - Garmin | Account | Export Your Data

    The export will include all activities in their original upload format (FIT, GPX, or TCX). Even if an activity was edited in Garmin Connect, it will still be exported in its original format. With 22 years of activities, I haven’t checked each one, so there’s a chance I could be mistaken. The folder structure isn’t very user-friendly, so you may need to dig around to find the specific activities you’re after.

  • You could use a script to export your data:

    https://github.com/pe-st/garmin-connect-export

    You could also use a 3rd party service like runalyze.com to automatically export your data [runalyze provides access to the original FIT file]. 3rd party services are only allowed to export data for a certain period of time [last couple of years, I think], so if you want all your data, you would still need to export it a different way, like using a script.

  • I know what it includes. I am referring to the list of activities in JSON format, not the GPX files (or other formats).
