Integration Summary
Validic is pleased to announce we are expanding the Validic marketplace with the addition of Polar. Validic’s new app integration provides support for authenticating and retrieving a Polar user’s fitness and routine data.
Polar heart rate monitors and performance sports watches are known globally for their durability and accuracy and their products are designed for any activity ranging from swimming, cross-training and yoga to tracking your daily activity and calorie consumption.
The Polar integration is compatible with all devices supported by the Polar Flow and Polar Beat iOS and Android mobile apps. Polar's API reports exercises (workouts) once they have been completed and reports a daily aggregation of steps, calories, etc once the day is complete. Please expect routine records to be reported in their entirety the day after the activity is completed, at the earliest, rather than being aggregated and updated throughout the day.
Please also note that Polar devices do not currently report the local timezone of the end user. Validic will request the end user's local timezone during the authorization process and use this information to report a "utc_offset" value for Polar fitness and routine records.
Polar's API reports metrics directly from the recording device only and only reports activity recorded after the user has granted an organization access to their data. No historical data is available. Any manual activities recorded in the web or mobile app and any manual user edits to device-recorded activities will not be reported by Polar's API. All Polar fitness and routine records will be reported as Validated = TRUE for this reason.
To request the addition of Polar to your marketplace, please submit a request to support@validic.com. For a basic understanding of how to sync a device or app with Validic, please review our “Marketplace Syncing” overview.
