Data Types

Wellness

User Device Data

Data from user devices and apps including:

#Functionality
Both parts of the API are functionally the same. This means that much of the documentation that you find here will apply to both, including:

Additionally, all data from Human API is encrypted both while in transit and at rest. See the Security for more information.

#Data Availability
The main difference between each type of data is where the data comes from. Wellness data often comes directly from wearable devices or apps maintained by the end-user as detailed on the Data Network , whereas Medical data comes directly from thousands of disparate healthcare providers and clinics.

As a result, there are some best practices and design considerations to be made for each as detailed on the Data Availability and Design page.
