Integrations

Bring health, activity, and spending records into Ritual automatically.

Connect the devices and services you already use to bring records into Ritual automatically. Start with one source, check its sync status, and review the resulting data in Logs.

Choose a source

Source	What it adds
Apple Health	Health and activity data through the iOS companion, with an import fallback
Whoop	Sleep, recovery, and workout data
Oura Ring	Sleep, readiness, activity, and heart-rate data
Garmin	Health metrics and activity events delivered through webhooks
Tesla	Odometer readings and daily miles driven
Plaid	Daily spending totals from eligible bank transactions

Fitbit connection is not enabled in the current build. The provider matrix below lists availability, authentication, and sync behavior for each source.

For app and website usage on your Mac, see Computer activity.

Connection and sync details

Wearable connections share a common API at /api/wearables, with normalized samples, events, and sync history. Financial connections use /api/financial and project daily spending totals into a managed Spending habit. The reference below describes these APIs and provider-specific behavior.

Unified wearables API

Core endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
GET	/api/wearables/providers	List provider capabilities and connection requirements
GET	/api/wearables/connections	List the current user’s wearable connections
POST	/api/wearables/connections/{provider}/authorize	Start provider auth or return provider-specific guidance
POST	/api/wearables/connections/{provider}/disconnect	Revoke a connection in Ritual
POST	/api/wearables/connections/{provider}/sync	Trigger a manual sync or account refresh
GET	/api/wearables/samples	Query canonical numeric samples across providers
GET	/api/wearables/events	Query canonical interval events such as sleep and workouts
GET	/api/wearables/sync-runs	Inspect recent sync runs, status, and item counts
GET	/api/wearables/metrics	Compatibility query route that returns samples as metrics

OAuth, callback, and webhook endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
GET	/api/wearables/oauth/{provider}/callback	OAuth callback for Whoop, Oura, and Garmin
POST	/api/wearables/webhooks/garmin	Garmin server-to-server webhook ingest

Canonical model

Resource	What it stores
Connection	Provider, auth method, status, provider user id, last sync state, tracked metrics, source count
Sample	Numeric wearable values such as steps, HRV, readiness score, or resting heart rate
Event	Time-bounded records such as sleep sessions and workouts
Sync run	A single auth refresh, manual sync, webhook ingest, or background ingest status record

When a canonical sample or event matches a habit with the same integration_source and metric_type, Ritual automatically projects it into habit_logs and forwards the compatible record to Tinybird when enabled.

Plaid (bank connections for spending tracking)

Plaid is the first financial integration in Ritual. It is used to help users track spending behavior, not to provide a full banking or budgeting product.

In the current build, Ritual:

• creates a Plaid Link token on the backend
• exchanges the public token for an access token server-side
• stores financial connections, accounts, and normalized transactions
• backfills available transaction history
• computes one positive daily spending total per day
• projects that total into a managed Spending habit

Financial integration API

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
POST	/api/financial/plaid/link-token	Create a Plaid Link token for first-time connect or update-mode reconnect
POST	/api/financial/plaid/exchange-public-token	Exchange Plaid public_token, create the Ritual connection, and optionally auto-backfill history
POST	/api/financial/plaid/webhook	Receive Plaid webhooks for transaction and Item status changes
GET	/api/financial/connections	List the current user’s financial connections, accounts, and sync state
POST	/api/financial/connections/{connection_id}/backfill	Import available Plaid history and rebuild daily spending totals
POST	/api/financial/connections/{connection_id}/sync	Pull the latest transactions and refresh daily spending totals
PUT	/api/financial/connections/{connection_id}/sync-settings	Update auto-sync and preferred sync hour
PUT	/api/financial/connections/{connection_id}/accounts/{account_id}	Include or exclude an account from spending rollups
DELETE	/api/financial/connections/{connection_id}	Disconnect Plaid inside Ritual
POST	/api/financial/sync-all	Internal scheduled sync entrypoint for active Plaid connections

Current spending rules

Plaid-backed spending is intentionally narrow in scope. In the current build, Ritual counts:

• posted outflows on depository accounts
• positive daily spending totals only

And excludes:

• pending transactions
• transfers
• loan-like and credit-card payment transactions
• non-depository accounts from the daily spending rollup

This means the integration is optimized for tracking daily spending behavior inside Ritual rather than reproducing a full transaction ledger.

Current connect and sync behavior

Behavior	Current implementation
Security gate	Users must enable MFA before Plaid Link can be used
Initial connect	Creates the Plaid connection, stores account metadata, and can auto-backfill history
Backfill	Imports available Plaid transaction history and recomputes daily totals
Incremental sync	Uses Plaid transaction sync plus a stored cursor
Reconnect	Uses Plaid update mode when an Item requires re-authentication
Account controls	Users can include or exclude individual accounts from spending totals
Scheduled sync	Active connections can be refreshed through the internal sync-all endpoint

Data Ritual stores from Plaid

Ritual stores:

• connection status and institution metadata
• account metadata such as name, mask, type, and subtype
• normalized transactions including date, amount, merchant/transaction name, direction, pending state, and provider category/code metadata
• derived daily spending habit logs and sync metadata

Plaid access tokens remain server-side. The product purpose for this data is to support spending-tracking features selected by the user.

Current scope and limitations

The current Plaid integration should be documented as:

• Plaid-only financial connectivity
• spending tracking, not budgeting or accounting
• daily rollups into a Spending habit
• best suited for supported Plaid institutions and available transaction history

If the production Plaid rollout is still pending approval, present this section as beta or coming soon rather than as a generally available banking feature.

Apple Health (HealthKit via iOS Companion)

Apple Health uses the Ritual iOS companion app, not OAuth. The device registers once, stores a device secret in Keychain, and signs every ingest request with HMAC-SHA256. The backend enforces idempotency with client_event_id.

Apple Health endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
POST	/api/wearables/apple/register_device	Create device_id and device_secret for the iOS companion
GET	/api/wearables/apple/devices	List registered Apple Health devices
DELETE	/api/wearables/apple/devices/{device_id}	Deactivate a device
GET	/api/wearables/apple/tracked_metrics	Return the Apple-linked habit metric types the client should sync
POST	/api/wearables/apple/ingest	Legacy signed ingest endpoint
POST	/api/wearables/apple/ingest/v2	Incremental ingest with added, deleted, modified, and anchor confirmation
GET	/api/wearables/apple/devices/{device_id}/status	Per-device sync health
GET	/api/wearables/apple/sync-status	Sync health for all Apple devices

Incremental sync behavior

/api/wearables/apple/ingest/v2 is the current path for HealthKit sync. The client sends:

Field	Meaning
added	New HealthKit samples since the last anchor
modified	Existing HealthKit samples whose values changed
deleted	HealthKit UUIDs that should be soft-deleted in Ritual
anchors	Per-metric anchor tokens that are only committed client-side after server confirmation

Apple Health metric mapping

The iOS app syncs provider metric types such as steps, hr, hrv, sleep_session, and workout. Ritual stores provider-neutral canonical names where possible.

Apple metric type	Stored as
steps	steps
active_energy	active_energy
basal_energy	basal_energy
distance	distance
flights_climbed	flights_climbed
exercise_time	exercise_time
stand_time	stand_time
hr	heart_rate
hrv	hrv
resting_hr	resting_heart_rate
walking_hr	walking_heart_rate
respiratory_rate	respiratory_rate
oxygen_saturation	oxygen_saturation
sleep_session	sleep_total
sleep_asleep	sleep_asleep
sleep_awake	sleep_awake
sleep_rem	sleep_rem
sleep_deep	sleep_deep
sleep_core	sleep_light
workout	workout
mindful_minutes	mindful_minutes

---

Whoop

Whoop is connected through the unified wearables connection flow, but the actual sync still uses the provider-specific Whoop service under the hood.

OAuth scopes

offline read:recovery read:sleep read:workout read:cycles read:profile

Whoop endpoints Ritual calls

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
GET	https://api.prod.whoop.com/oauth/oauth2/auth	OAuth authorization
POST	https://api.prod.whoop.com/oauth/oauth2/token	Token exchange and refresh
GET	/developer/v1/user/profile/basic	Resolve the Whoop user id after OAuth
GET	/developer/v1/recovery	Recovery data with pagination
GET	/developer/v1/cycle	Cycle/day records with pagination
GET	/developer/v2/cycle/{cycleId}/sleep	Sleep session for a cycle
GET	/developer/v1/activity/workout	Workout data with pagination

Whoop sync behavior

Behavior	Current implementation
First sync	Pulls the last 30 days
Incremental sync	Pulls from last sync time with a 2-day overlap
Token refresh	Refreshes when expiry is within 5 minutes
Metric gating	Recovery and workout fetches are skipped if the user has no matching Whoop-linked habits

Canonical Whoop data Ritual stores

Kind	Stored as	Source fields
Sample	recovery_score	Recovery score
Sample	hrv	hrv_rmssd_milli
Sample	resting_heart_rate	Resting heart rate
Sample	oxygen_saturation	SpO2 percentage
Sample	temperature_delta	Skin temperature delta
Event	sleep_total	Sleep session with stage summary details
Event	workout	Workout window with strain, distance, and HR details

---

Oura Ring

Oura is now part of the unified cloud wearable flow. Ritual exchanges OAuth tokens, refreshes them automatically, fetches recent collections, and normalizes the results into shared samples and events.

OAuth scopes

email personal daily heartrate session workout tag

Oura endpoints Ritual calls

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
GET	https://cloud.ouraring.com/oauth/authorize	OAuth authorization
POST	https://api.ouraring.com/oauth/token	Token exchange and refresh

GET	/v2/usercollection/daily_activity	Activity summary
GET	/v2/usercollection/workout	Workout sessions
GET	/v2/usercollection/heartrate	Heart-rate series when available for the token/scope

Oura sync behavior

Behavior	Current implementation
First sync	Pulls the last 30 days
Incremental sync	Uses last sync time with a minimum 2-day overlap and maximum 30-day lookback
Scope tolerance	403 and 404 collection responses are treated as unavailable scope/data, not fatal

Canonical Oura data Ritual stores

Kind	Stored as
Sample	steps, active_energy, distance, activity_score
Sample	readiness_score, temperature_delta
Sample	sleep_score, sleep_deep, sleep_rem, sleep_light
Sample	hrv, resting_heart_rate, heart_rate
Event	sleep_total
Event	workout

Garmin

Garmin is connected through unified OAuth plus a webhook ingest path. The manual sync endpoint is mainly an account refresh step that loads the provider user id and permissions; actual activity data is expected to arrive through Garmin webhooks.

OAuth and webhook flow

Step	Current implementation
Authorization	PKCE OAuth via /api/wearables/connections/garmin/authorize
Callback	/api/wearables/oauth/garmin/callback validates state, exchanges code, stores tokens, and records permissions
Manual sync	/api/wearables/connections/garmin/sync refreshes account metadata and permissions
Webhook ingest	/api/wearables/webhooks/garmin accepts Garmin payloads and maps them to the linked Ritual user

If GARMIN_WEBHOOK_SECRET is configured, the webhook requires the x-garmin-webhook-secret header.

Canonical Garmin data Ritual stores

Kind	Stored as
Sample	steps, distance, active_energy, resting_heart_rate
Sample	stress_score, body_battery
Event	sleep_total
Event	workout

Tesla

Tesla is connected through OAuth via the Tesla Fleet API. Ritual tracks odometer readings and calculates daily miles driven, projecting them into a managed habit.

Tesla integration API

Method	Endpoint	Purpose
POST	/api/integrations/tesla/callback	OAuth token exchange
GET	/api/integrations/tesla/status	Connection status, last sync time, and vehicle list
POST	/api/integrations/tesla/sync	Manual odometer sync
POST	/api/integrations/tesla/backfill-odometer	Backfill historical mileage across a date range
POST	/api/integrations/tesla/disconnect	Revoke the Tesla connection

What Ritual tracks from Tesla

Data	How it’s stored
Odometer readings	Raw odometer value per vehicle per sync
Miles driven	Daily delta calculated from consecutive odometer readings, projected into a managed “Miles Driven” habit
Vehicle metadata	Display name and vehicle IDs

Tesla sync behavior

Behavior	Current implementation
Auth	OAuth 2.0 with automatic token refresh when expiry is within 5 minutes
Token storage	Encrypted access and refresh tokens stored server-side
Multi-vehicle	Supports multiple vehicles per account with per-vehicle odometer tracking
Backfill	Distributes historical miles evenly across days with idempotent log creation
Scheduled sync	Active connections are refreshed through a Trigger.dev background task
Deduplication	Skips logging if the odometer delta is zero or a log already exists for that date

---

Desktop context

Ritual Watcher and Ritual Recorder are separate from the unified wearables API. They are first-party desktop context features, not third-party integrations.

For detailed docs on computer tracking, OCR capture, memory indexing, and hybrid search, see Context Understanding.

---

Weather

Weather context is also outside the unified wearables API. Ritual attaches local conditions and temperature context to logs automatically where location support is available.
