Garmin connect implementation in HASS

Would be amazing to have Garmin connect (https://connect.garmin.com/) stats implemented in HASS.

Seems like a well documented API:

https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/api-docs/

Then it should be easy for the smart Home Assistant people to implement it :slight_smile:

Oh PLEASE, yes, add this to HA. I use Garmin Connect for cycling. I would take it even a step further with some wishful thinking and wish one would be able to use Garmin Live Track within HA.

For some reason I can’t get the vote button to work for me, but this is definitely something I would like to see added, along the same lines as the FitBit sensor. I wish I had the smarts to build the component myself but it isn’t so.

Do we need to pay the $5K fee to access the API?

It doesn’t look like it. If you want access to live data like:

  • speed
  • pace
  • cadence
  • power
  • GPS

Then you need to pay the licencing fee for the “Fitness / Connect API”.

If you want summary info like

  • all day step count
  • all day calorie count
  • all day distance
  • sleep duration

Then you can just use the free “GCS / Wellness API”. I think this free API would be sufficient. There is also info available in the free api for activity tracking, but it says “During activity only”, so I’m not sure how that would work.

+1 Would love to see this implemented into HA.

Hello team,

I migrated from Fitbit to Garmin platform and I contacted the Garmin API team to get access to the Garmin Health API. If they approves it, I’ll start and implement this sensor for us.

Stay tuned!

Sweet! Fingeres crossed, I still have some time to return my new fitbit :slight_smile:

Hello folks,

I got the green light from Garmin to start creating this component. I’ll be working on this in the next couple of weeks and I’ll report when I have something for us!

I’m pumped about this one!

Hello guys,

The project has began!! https://github.com/tchellomello/garmin_health

I’m going to add some basically functionality and then start working on the Garmin module for Hass so we should have something very soon.

Awesome! Looking forward to see the result!

What would you use it for ? In a home domotica system ? Hmmm

I know that is only a month after you started but do you have any updates? Keep up the good work!!

Hi!!

Any success with this yet? I’m very interested as I would probably create my own integration to Garmin Connect if you’ve stopped working on this.

Cheerio!! :smile:

Agreed, I would love to see this.
