(1) Configure export

Time Period – determines timeframe to be exported. Pay attention to the timezone if exporting data recorded in a different timezone. For instance, if participants recorded data in Japan from Jan 1 – Jan 31 but your are based in the UK, either select the Japan timezone and Jan 1 – Jan 31 or UK timezone (9 hours behind Japan) with Dec 31 – Jan 31 to get all the data.  

User – select users to be exported. You can also select groups which will export all users within a group. 

Data – select data types to be exported. See Data Dictionary for details. Data types with the addition of “(GC only)” are only available if synced via the Garmin Connect app. HRV metrics (e.g. RMSSD, SDNN, etc.) can be found in the “Daily Health Log”, “Hourly Health Log” and “Detailed Health Log” data type. There is also a specific HRV report at Analyze > HRV.

Options – select “Hide Duplicates and Errors” to remove duplicate data entries and errors from the data export. Select “Anonymize Data” to exclude user names from the data export.

Download – click on download opens the download options. Select how the export file should be named and the export format. 

Keep in mind that Excel can only hold up to 1.5m data elements. This can easily be exceeded if exporting accelerometer or other large sets of data. Select CSV or JSON for large data amounts. 

Available Downloads – you will find your downloadable file in this section as soon as it is ready.
