Adds data points to a dataset. The dataset need not be previously created. All points within the given dataset will be returned with subsquent calls to retrieve this dataset. Data points can belong to more than one dataset. This method does not use patch semantics: the data points provided are merely inserted, with no existing data replaced.

Scopes

You will need authorization for at least one of the following scopes to make a valid call:

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.activity.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.blood_glucose.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.blood_pressure.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.body.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.body_temperature.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.heart_rate.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.location.write

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.oxygen_saturation.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.reproductive_health.write
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.sleep.write

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/fitness.activity.write. You can set the scope for this method like this: fitness1 --scope <scope> users data-sources-datasets-patch ...

Required Scalar Arguments

  • <user-id> (string)
    • Patch a dataset for the person identified. Use me to indicate the authenticated user. Only me is supported at this time.
  • <data-source-id> (string)
    • The data stream ID of the data source that created the dataset.
  • <dataset-id> (string)
    • This field is not used, and can be safely omitted.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

Dataset:
  data-source-id: string
  max-end-time-ns: string
  min-start-time-ns: string
  next-page-token: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

  • -r . data-source-id=gubergren
    • The data stream ID of the data source that created the points in this dataset.
  • max-end-time-ns=eos
    • The largest end time of all data points in this possibly partial representation of the dataset. Time is in nanoseconds from epoch. This should also match the second part of the dataset identifier.
  • min-start-time-ns=dolor
    • The smallest start time of all data points in this possibly partial representation of the dataset. Time is in nanoseconds from epoch. This should also match the first part of the dataset identifier.
  • next-page-token=ea
    • This token will be set when a dataset is received in response to a GET request and the dataset is too large to be included in a single response. Provide this value in a subsequent GET request to return the next page of data points within this dataset.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

  • The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
  • The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
  • You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
  • You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

  • -o out
    • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

  • -p $-xgafv=string

    • V1 error format.

  • -p access-token=string

    • OAuth access token.

  • -p alt=string

    • Data format for response.

  • -p callback=string

    • JSONP

  • -p fields=string

    • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

  • -p key=string

    • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

  • -p oauth-token=string

    • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

  • -p pretty-print=boolean

    • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

  • -p quota-user=string

    • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.

  • -p upload-type=string

    • Legacy upload protocol for media (e.g. "media", "multipart").

  • -p upload-protocol=string

    • Upload protocol for media (e.g. "raw", "multipart").
