Google Fit API Integration
With Terra's Google Fit web API integration, Terra gathers data from a multitude of sources through the Google Fit unified API, and provides it to your app. You can expect a wide range of collected data points, ranging from users' automatically tracked workouts, to detailed sleep information. This will reflect all data that can be synced into users' Google Fit apps through one simple integration.Start Receiving Data From Google Fit In 5 Minutes

How the Google Fit API integration works
- Data delivery
- Terra polls Google Fit
- Expected latency
- Up to 5–10 minutes after the provider syncs
- Data types
- Activity, Body, Daily, Nutrition and Sleep
- Credentials
- Terra manages the Google Fit API credentials, so there is nothing to register
Two ways to receive Google Fit data
When data is available from a Google Fit device, Terra sends it straight to your webhook. During your Terra account setup you'll be prompted for a callback URL, and that is where Terra POSTs each payload.
Google Fit does not notify Terra when data changes, so Terra polls it every 5–10 minutes for each connected user and POSTs the normalized payload to your webhook.
Google Fit's Activity
Payload Preview
Terra API preserves the raw data from the wearable, it just standardizes the units and the json format. It doesn’t augment or change the raw data in any way.
Data is organized into one of 6 data types.
