[SOLVED] HealthFit and Strava

1

I’ve run into an issue with how intervals.icu handles multiple sources of data (or how I’ve configured it).

I pull data into intervals from Strava as well as from HealthFit (the HealthFit integration being added most recently). When I track my workouts from my watch, this works great.

Strava can also write workouts to Apple Health. Apple Health does a great job of de-duplicating workouts from Strava and from the watch.

The issue I’ve encountered is with Zwift. With Zwift I use a Polar HR strap. I have Zwift configured to upload workouts to Strava, and they also appear in Apple Fitness, because Strava can write to Apple Health. However, HR data is intermittent (just background reading from the watch) and power, cadence, etc data is completely missing. In Strava, all this data is fully present.

In intervals, the initial sync from Strava includes the full dataset, but when HealthFit syncs, instead of enriching this data, it overwrites it and now all my indoor cycling workouts have improper analysis. Have I miscondigured something?

Hi,
It sounds like you want to update your intervals.icu settings for the Healthfit integration and disable the Read Activities option. If your activities are syncing to Strava anyway, then intervals can pull them all from there and it won’t get overwritten by the Apple fitness activity version with missing data coming from HealthFit. Are there any workouts that you don’t upload to Strava?

You can also enable Zwift Integration in Intervals.icu and get the activities directly from Zwift.

Oh! I didn’t realize this functionality got added recently, excellent! I think that will solve all my problems. Thanks so much for your hard work! Buying a membership now.
