Data Fields

Field Description
ParticipantID The stable, automatically generated, internal system identifier for this participant. Universally unique identifier (UUID).
ParticipantIdentifier The identifier of the participant the activity summary is for. Can be used to cross reference with Participants.
SummaryId Unique identifier for the summary.
StartTimeInSeconds

Start time of the activity in seconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (Unix timestamp).
StartTimeOffsetInSeconds Offset in seconds to add to startTimeInSeconds to derive the “local” time of the device that captured the data.
timeOffsetEpochToBreaths
 Collection of key-value pairs  where the key is offset in seconds  from the startTimeInSeconds and respiration measurement taken at that time. Respiration measurement is in breaths per minute.
DurationInSeconds

The duration of the measurement period in seconds.
InsertedDate The creation date of the entry, in ISO 8601 format. Is always in UTC.
