I'm a runner who uses HRM 600 + Fenix 8 pro - The watch collects SSL (Step Speed Loss) metric during running, but it is not available in Toybox.AntPlus.RunningDynamicsData (nor via SensorHistory) in the SDK.
Could you please consider exposing SSL and/or SSL% as part of the Running Dynamics API so that data-fields and apps can access it? This would enable richer running-dynamics features and better integration with third-party hardware (e.g., glasses from ActiveLook). I want to be able to do a PR to expose these to Engo eyewear for users who have spent a lot of money adopting Garmin Running Dynamics on Modern watch/HRM.
I don't see it exposed here:
https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/api-docs/Toybox/AntPlus/RunningDynamicsData.html
There is a pretty bad UX around this, if i want to use the HRM 600 with datafields (such as my Engo eyewear) I have to run it in ANT+ mode, but in doing so, I lose the SSL feature of the 600 making it an HRM 200.
Garmin needs to add SSL to AntPlus or make a toybox that exposes running dynamics over BLE since it seems Secure Bluetooth is the "Way of the future" as mandated by EU and other regulatory bodies.
