How to integrate with the Garmin API: ROOK simplifies access to Garmin wearable data for health, fitness, and insurance apps.
How it connects
ROOK's Garmin Web API integration delivers body metrics, physical activity and sleep data from Garmin devices as structured JSON, by webhook and API.
Utilize Garmin data to personalize user experiences, boosting engagement and retention.
Our Garmin integration delivers notifications within minutes after a user completes an event and syncs their app.
