Hi,
I am the developer of a Connect IQ app called Caffeine Tracker.
Garmin Connect now has Lifestyle Logging for behaviors such as caffeine. I would like to understand whether this data can be written by third-party Connect IQ apps, or whether Lifestyle Logging entries can only be created inside Garmin Connect.
My questions:
- Is there any public Connect IQ API that allows a watch app to create Lifestyle Logging entries in Garmin Connect, specifically caffeine entries?
- If not, is there any other approved integration path for this use case?
- If Lifestyle Logging write access is not part of the public Connect IQ SDK, is there any private, partner, beta, or approved integration path for established Connect IQ apps?
- Is Garmin Health API read-only for this kind of data, or can approved partners write lifestyle events?
- If direct write access is not possible, what is Garmin’s recommended approach for third-party apps that track caffeine on the watch?
The goal is to let users log caffeine intake directly on the watch and, ideally, have those logs available in Garmin Connect alongside sleep, stress, HRV, and recovery data.
Thanks
