What are the differences between the resource paths "activities/steps" and "activities/tracker/steps"? Documentation states that "activities/tracker/... resources represent the daily activity values logged by the tracker device only, excluding the manual activity log entries", however as I understand it there is no way to manually log steps. Is that correct?

You can manually log steps by logging an activity and specifying a distance and time.

 

activities/steps time series represents steps from both device and manually entered values.

activities/tracker/* time series represents data exclusively from devices.
