BodyTrace integration with FitnessSyncer FAQ
What kinds of data can I read or publish to BodyTrace?

You cannot publish any data to this service at this time.

How do I configure my BodyTrace Scale?
At the time of purchase of your BodyTrace scales, you will need to indicate that you will be using FitnessSyncer, and they can configure the integration with FitnessSyncer.
Once that is configured, you will need to add a Body Composition Source for each of your scales. In the Identifier field, please enter the serial number of your scale, and on the next weighing, we should receive the data shortly after that.
If you have many of these to configure, you may use our Adding Participants in Batch capability or use our API. For assistance, please contact us.
How do I configure my BodyTrace Blood Pressure Monitor?
The same way as the scales above, except that you add a Blood Pressure Source rather than a Body Composition Source, entering the serial number of your monitor in the Identifier field.
If you have both a scale and a blood pressure monitor, each device needs its own Source — one Body Composition Source for the scale and one Blood Pressure Source for the monitor.
Nothing seems to happen when I click Sync on my BodyTrace sources; why?
We get immediately notified whenever you take a reading within their system, and thus, the sync button usually does not find anything.
Can I get historical data from my BodyTrace devices?
No, BodyTrace devices are currently only available for future synchronizations.
