intervals.icu integration
CompletedHey guys,
I would love to see an intervals.icu integration as this is a free service and the reason for a lot people to use it.
Thanks a lot

I would even say more… when RR intervals would be recorded by the karoo (which seems planned), when a straight connection is made (not via strava as strava can’t pass through that information) with intervals.icu, the rr (and hrv) values can be plotted and calculated on graphs and e.g. be used to determine aerobic threshold from trainings. More info about it on the intervals.icu forum.

In light of the changes in Strava's API (https://forum.intervals.icu/t/strava-activity-visibility-update/79590), this integration has become very important to me. Until now, workouts performed on Karoo were uploaded to the Intervals app via Strava. This allowed my coach to have visibility into all my training sessions. However, starting from December 1st, I'll need to upload all activities manually.

Another vote- but I wanted to provide some clarity as there are two different asks in this same thread related to intervals.icu.
I have been a Karoo2 user for a few years now but just started using intervals.icu for my training metrics, as the free version (even paid version) Strava is not really ideal for this. I am hoping to get some way to upload my ride data direct to intervals.icu without requiring a middleman. This is a burden on us as a user which is directly remedied by you at Hammerhead if you so choose to assist.
The only way to do send a ride file now is very clunky and adds another layer of privacy issues and app requirements. I have heard rides can be sent to Dropbox, and then intervals.icu can pull from there. I do not have a Dropbox account. I decided to take the other option which was to create an account with Suunto and download their app on my phone. Hammerhead can upload the ride to Suunto, and then intervals.icu can get it from them.
I have read in the intervals.icu forum that all they need to make an integration is the Hammerhead API. I am guessing this is for pushing intervals workouts to a Hammerhead device. This feature is being requested in this thread. Also what else is being requested in here is allowing Hammerhead to push direct to intervals.icu. So basically we need both ways.
Seems that Strava is creating new API issues. There is also another issue that has been present with Strava for a while too. Strava does not use/save all the ride file data for L/R power balance and a few other metrics. When pulling data from Strava to intervals.icu, you then lose this data because Strava discards it. This is the reason that I set up the Suunto connection as i did not want my ride data parsed and discarded by Strava. So keep this in mind when building the connection from Hammerhead to intervals as intervals uses ALL of the ride data unlike Strava. Thanks
