Hello,

I'm only a little familiar with Power Apps. Is your app a mobile app or a web app?

This link lists out the alternatives.

The primary recommended alternative for the Google Fit REST API is Health Connect.

If your app does not work on Android mobile devices, you can also consider the Fitbit Web API.

Ah, gotcha. There's no good way of doing this. I think you will either have to:

1. Filter the response of readRecords yourself.
2. Perform two AggregateRequests, one with a null dataOriginFilter, and another with a dataOriginFilter set to your app, and subtract one from the other.

(And yes, another workaround--which does not work, but which I think you were thinking of in your original request--would be to get the list of sources that had contributed data of a particular type, exclude your app, and then pass the remainder as the dataOriginFilter.)

Can you share your use case? This would help us prioritise figuring out some way to exclude your own data/writes from information returned by Health Connect.

Can I request to add this type of function to HealthConnect API?

I've changed the type to feature request.

Can you provide more detail on your use case, so we can better evaluate the priority and see if there are any alternative solutions or workarounds?

Also, did you typo the link in your original bug report? I think you actually want a Health Connect equivalent of HKSourceQueryDescriptor (not HKSource).

This issue is being tracked internally.

For step count in particular I would just use the data Health Connect gives you; you should not need to do extra work to de-dupe, clean data, etc.

(Note that users can also select their "priority app" for different data types https://support.google.com/android/answer/12990553?hl=en. I'm getting more information on exactly how this works.)

We're considering addressing this use case by adding a way to query HC that excludes data written yourself.

This doesn't help #comment11 but should address #comment5.

Any thoughts/comments?
