Intervals.icu and Suunto

@david I think there are two different things here. Fixing (interpolating) bad/missing data - this is ok now, thank you. But I get only a minute or so :slight_smile:

Not sure how to explain this, but from my point there are 3 different times here:

  • elapsed time (from start to end - no questions here)
  • moving time (this is probably calculated, so time when speed/pace is 0 is not counted)
  • third one - not sure how to name it :smiley: it is somewhere between elapsed and moving. If you don’t press pause on watch, then this time equals elapsed time. If you press pause for 5min then this time is elapsed time minus paused time (-5min). This is my activity time in Suunto App, this is time my watch returns after I end my activity. For me this is my ‘training’ time and I believe it should count. This is not a problem when cycling or running on flat, but when trail running and hiking, where speeds are slow, and you are moving 2-3kmh and gaining a lot of vertical meters. And in races, when you stop for a drink/snack, refill your bottles, maybe change socks and so on.

I’m glad to add some examples if it would help.

Yes please post an example or two. Tx.

Hiking, no stops here, but I was trying to climb around some snow before reaching top - speed was probably close to 0 :slight_smile:

Trail run race - no pressing pause, but there were stops on aid stations to eat, drink, change clothes:

BTW, ski touring is converted to alpine ski (here is also an example of moving/elapsed time). And a weird altitude graph - data on other platforms seems ok:

Hello guys,
I discovered intervals.icu today and it looks awsome! :clap:
I noticed a small bug: with the Suunto import any XC-ski activity is being converted into back-country skiing. Let me know if you need more details to understand and possibly fix this!

Tx for this. Will be looking into these on Friday. The altitude is probably ok, you need to display “Fixed altitude”. I am going to sort that out.

Intervals.icu uses activity types from Strava. The skiing ones are:

AlpineSki,
BackcountrySki("Ski", "Skiing"),
NordicSki,
RollerSki,

So no XC-Ski.

I have experimented a bit and Intervals.icu now considers velocity and cadence when calculating moving time. If velocity is missing or < 0.05 meters/sec then it checks cadence (> 0 is moving). Will deploy Friday AM (GMT+2). Unfortunately you need to reprocess existing files (on the activity list view or Actions → Reprocess file under the ride timeline chart).

“Morning Run” ha ha … looks like all day run to me! With 6051m climbing!!

The interpolated altitude is now the default display for “Altitude” which sorts out the skiing:

Thank you, this is it! Great tool just become better :slight_smile:

I’m happy to be a supporter, you are very responsive and trying to help!

ps: “Morning run” was not meant to be bragging, it was just an example because a lot of time was missing. I’m not doing this every weekend. Caption is default :smiley:

Another random Suunto issue I’m experiencing is that “Indoor Rowing” isn’t pairing with a scheduled “Row” workout.

Is there something I need to do differently to get them to pair once I’ve completed as planned?

They should pair if the load, duration etc are similar. Can you point me at an activity on a day with a planned rowing workout that didn’t pair?

I deleted the planned row before I saw this, but will do hit the rower again this week and send a link.

Thanks!

Finally did a row! :slight_smile:

Re: Row workout not pairing with planned workout. Duration is spot on for the row, load is only 7 more than planned.

Aha. The issue is that you haven’t defined a sport for Rowing so it gets lumped into “Other”. Activities in “Other” are not paired with workouts. I have just changed this so they will now pair if the activity type and planned workout type match. Will deploy Tues AM (GMT+2).

@david was looking to get Suunto wellness (sleep) data connected/syncing to my account. Have you checked/heard anything from them? Their public facing API list doesn’t appear to have it. I’ll reach to them about it, but curious if you have and if you’ve heard anything from them.

I vaguely remember getting an email from them about this but I cannot find it! I think they did implement something.

Hi everybody,
any kind of answer from either intervals.icu or suunto regarding the wellness integrations ?
manu thanks to everyone !

I can’t see anything documented in their API docs but interestingly the URL includes sleep in the path: https://apizone.suunto.com/docs/services/activity-and-sleep-data-api/operations/daily-activity-statistics

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to return sleep data.

It shows me the following message
“Error fetching activities from SUUNTO”

Is there a problem on the suunto or intervals side?

Fixed
I have disconnected and connected again and everything is correct

@david I noticed some gaps in my training history from Suunto. Some older periods are missing. (2018-March-6 2020-May-21)
What I tried:

  • trying to Download Old Data (it displays the correct number of activities in the top green notification but nothing happens.)
  • disconnected from Suunto App and reconnecting it. Same issue
  • showing deleted activities in the calendar: nothing there.
    Can you please guide me to find the reason?

You have some swim files with no distance information (no distance for the lengths and no pool length indicator). This was breaking the import. I have fixed that and triggered a fetch for 5 March 2018 to 31 Dec 2018 which seems to have worked. You can use the “Download old data” button to fill in other gaps.
