I noticed that my smart scale data is not syncing to Training Peaks. Is there a trick to getting it to sync or do we have to manually enter all of that info into TP everyday?
To answer my own question, here's what the Training Peaks people just wrote to me:
Metrics don't come over via Garmin Autosync, unfortunately, but they can be synced over https://www.fitnesssyncer.com/. Fitness Syncer will sync metrics at midnight, so it will essentially be a day behind (if you weigh yourself this morning, for example, it won't be in TrainingPeaks till after midnight). That said, the premium option allows for immediate syncing if that's something you're interested in.
This is interesting, I've been looking into this again recently and sent a query over to the FitnessSyncer people regarding what data from the Index makes it over to TrainingPeaks. They replied:
Currently TrainingPeaks allows us to upload: Weight Water Percent Percent Fat Muscle Mass BMI
From a quick look, the only one that Garmin provides us that does not get pushed over is Bone Mass.
This sounds great if it's the case; could you confirm if these data all make it across to TrainingPeaks from your Garmin Index uploads?

Yes those are the data fields that are making it over. My first sync grabbed about the last 30 days worth of data and it syncs daily now. One thing to note is that it will capture multiple weigh-ins per day. Not sure how that affects things though on the TrainingPeaks side of things.
