[API] How to get activity ID from subscription

[AvendoOT]

Hi,

I have registered a subscription for activities. How can I get that activity ID from subscription so I can query it for activity TCX raw data ?

Hi @AvendoOT,

Welcome to the forums!

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to subscribe to certain activities with the subscription API at this time. When you are subscribed to the activities scope with today's design, you will be only be notified whenever any metric from the activity collection is updated. This includes steps, calories, floors, and distance.

This has been brought up in the past and a post was created in our Feature Suggestions forum (please upvote so our product teams are aware that this is still a highly requested item). The feature request may be implemented depending on how much interest the idea has garnered.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

thank you very much for fast response. So the Subscription API will not notify me when an activity like "running" happened (when user manually selected some sports activity for tracking on his watch) ?
