Data Field not available in Run activity on fēnix 8

I have created a data field for use with a variety of activity types and devices. On my fēnix 6 Pro, I can download the field from the Connect IQ Store and add it field to many activity types, including the standard "Run" activity.

I have since received a report that, on a fēnix 8 device, the data field can be added to certain activities - including Treadmill Run - but not the standard Run activity type.

What could be the cause of this, and how can it be addressed?

  • This typically happens when you reach the limit of simultaneous CIQ data fields for an activity profile. That was 2 for watches till now and I think it has been increased to 4 for F8.

    Check if this user is already using the maximum allowed quantity of DF in the Run activity profile
