App flow to retrieve wearable data

Hey there,

After a user connects one of their wearable device accounts to your Terra account, you will receive a user_id that uniquely identifies that device, something like efb43159-a1ab-4c4a-88bd-5100157a1e6b. Using this user ID, you can request for data from this user from your application's backend with a simple HTTP request like so (using python for this example):

The request above will return a json response containing a data payload that follows our daily data model.

Additionally, using Terra's destinations feature, you can have data from the users device/account directly sent to your backend or database as new data becomes available. For example, you can setup a webhook on your backend that will ingest Terra payloads. When a new user connects their device, you will receive a payload detailing the device and the user's id (and a reference_id that you can supply to identify them) and anytime they complete a workout or new steps gets synced with their device, we will send you a payload containing all the data for the day.
