getting data into HealthVault

[mtalinm]

I think I made it work. a bit kludgey, but here goes.

step 1: connect the ms health app to MyFitnessPal. then it will push your workouts (but not sleep, or overall calories burned) to MFP.

step 2: connect MFP to FitBit account. it will push your foods, workouts, etc to FB. (it says there is no 2-way synching, but somehow it got my weight from my FB Aria scale so that's cool). I voice-logged some Doritos into FB using Cortana, but that didn't make it back to MFP

step 3: connect FB to HealthVault. you have to do this from inside HV but it works. though I think the sync is only once a day.

why do I want everything in HV? hrm. I figured the ms health app would sync to that, but reports say it might not.

That was mighty clever.

If you wait, they said it would eventually sync. Just as there is supposed to be analytics and a website.

Hopefully this decade.

Hi, I tried your suggestion, but foods are not pushed from MFP to FB, only the food composition (calories, fat, etc.) and nothing gets into HealthVault from FB. Do you have a FB premium account or a free one?

Thanks!

this has to do with Fitbit not Microsoft Band Please move to right part of forum

I got two days worth of data from FP to HV today, no individual foods, just the meals summaries, but for now it's good enough, waiting for the Microsoft Health website, analytics, etc., though. Thanks for the suggestion!
