Validic is pleased to announce we are expanding the Validic Marketplace with the addition of continuous glucose monitoring with Dexcom CGMs. Dexcom helps to simplify diabetes management with exceptional accuracy and convenience. The Dexcom integration offers blood glucose level tracking throughout the day and night so that users can see how food, activity, and insulin affect their levels.
To request the addition of Dexcom to your marketplace, please submit a request to support@validic.com. Customer applications are subject to pre-approval and special licensing requirements defined by Dexcom in order to receive data from Dexcom meters. For a basic understanding of how to sync a device or app with Validic, please review our “Marketplace Syncing” overview.
