M2 Garmin Sync — Docs

Welcome

Introduction to M2 Garmin Sync — what it is and who it's for.

Welcome to M2 Garmin Sync

M2 Garmin Sync is the Mindpax platform for collecting and analyzing health and activity data from Garmin wearable devices. It securely connects your Garmin account to the M2 research program and continuously syncs the data your devices record so the research team can correlate it with study outcomes.

Who this is for

  • Study participants — connect your Garmin account once and let the data flow automatically. No manual exports, no spreadsheets.
  • Researchers — access aggregated, longitudinal health data from consenting participants for analysis.
  • Administrators — manage participants, invitations, and Garmin connections from a single admin panel.

What gets synced

Once connected, M2 Garmin Sync receives the data your Garmin device uploads to Garmin Connect, including:

  • Daily activity summaries (steps, calories, distance)
  • Heart rate (resting, daily, and intra-day)
  • Sleep stages and duration
  • Stress levels and Body Battery
  • Workout and exercise sessions

Data is delivered to the platform via Garmin's official PUSH webhook system — typically within minutes of being recorded.
