Workouts in HealthKit have a unique data structure for capturing information specific to the participant’s workout.

Data Structure

Workouts

Field Description
HealthKitWorkoutKey A unique, auto-generated key for this workout.
ParticipantIdentifier The identifier of the participant this task was for. Can be used to cross reference with Participants.
ParticipantID The stable, automatically generated, internal system identifier for this participant. Universally unique identifier (UUID).
ActivityType The type of activity undertaken during the workout.
StartDate The start date of the workout, in ISO 8601 format. Includes timezone offset information. May be empty if no start date was recorded.
Date The end date of the workout, in ISO 8601 format. Includes timezone offset information.
Duration The duration of the workout, in seconds (if recorded).
TotalDistance The distance traveled during the workout, in meters (if recorded).
TotalEnergyBurned The energy burned during the workout, in kcal (if recorded).
TotalFlightsClimbed The flights of stairs climbed during the workout (if recorded).
TotalSwimmingStrokeCount The number of swimming strokes during the workout (if recorded).
SourceIdentifier Uniquely identifies the iOS App which generated the reading. “com.apple.health.*” indicates a reading from an Apple Device like the iPhone or Apple Watch.
SourceName The name of the source app which generated the reading. In the case of a “com.apple.health.*” SourceIdentifier, this is the name of the Apple Device used to generate the reading (e.g. “Chris’ iPhone”).
SourceVersion The version of the source app which generated the reading. In the case of a “com.apple.health.*” SourceIdentifier, this is the version of iOS or WatchOS on the device used to generate the reading.
SourceOperatingSystemVersion An arbitrary string representing the version of the software running on the device, if applicable.
SourceProductType An arbitrary string representing the hardware version of the device, if applicable.
DeviceName The user-facing name for the device, if applicable.
DeviceModel Model of the device used the generate the reading, if applicable.
DeviceManufacturer Manufacturer of the device used the generate the reading, if applicable.
DeviceHardwareVersion An arbitrary string representing the hardware version of the device, if applicable.
DeviceSoftwareVersion An arbitrary string representing the version of the software running on the device, if applicable.
DeviceFirmwareVersion An arbitrary string representing the current version of the firmware running on the device, if applicable.
DeviceLocalIdentifier An identifier that uniquely identifies the device object on the hardware running this code, if applicable.
DeviceFDAIdentifier The device identifier portion of the US Food and Drug Administration’s Unique Device Identifier (UDI), if applicable.
Metadata Additional XML metadata inserted by the source application.
InsertedDate The creation date of the entry, in ISO 8601 format. Is always in UTC.

Workout Events

An object representing an important event during a workout (e.g. pausing/resuming).

Field Description
HealthKitWorkoutEventKey A unique, auto-generated key for this workout event.
HealthKitWorkoutKey A unique, auto-generated key for this workout.
ParticipantIdentifier The identifier of the participant this task was for. Can be used to cross reference with Participants.
Type

Constants that represent events occurring during a workout.

Date The start date of the workout, in ISO 8601 format. Includes timezone offset information. May be empty if no start date was recorded.
EndDate The end date of the workout, in ISO 8601 format. Includes timezone offset information.
Metadata Additional XML metadata inserted by the source application.
InsertedDate The creation date of the entry, in ISO 8601 format. Is always in UTC.

If a participant re-syncs their device, you may observe duplicate samples. HealthKit samples are immutable, so when doing data analysis, your team will need to remove any samples that have the same HealthKitWorkoutKey / HealthKitWorkoutEventKey and ParticipantIdentifier as another sample.
