2022 April Updates

Check out what we've been doing at Terra over the month of April!

Backend 💾

FreestyleLibre integration will now ensure that 2fa is set up appropriately for the user account during authentication to ensure that data fetching will work correctly.
Backend queues have been further split up to prevent a backlog of tasks causing severe webhook request delays.
Implemented support for timezone offsets when making requests to the Google Fit REST API in order to ensure that the requested days correctly correspond to the user's timezone.
Implemented manual and automatic payload tagging for Google daily payloads with the V2 data models based on whether any manually added samples have been included in the payload.
Added timezone information for Fitbit sleep payloads where possible.
Improved worker performance for webhook requests and removed invalid webhook URLs from our database.
Improved processing of IDs for specific providers to increase data anonymisation.
Improved Polar daily data requesting to prevent loss of data due to still-active transactions not being completed, as well as improving subsequent returns of the same requested data by caching the created transactions.
Improved payload deduplication to work better for body and nutrition payloads.
Improved data generator to correctly generate sample payloads for multiple versions of the data models.

Fixed Garmin cached payloads being stored with an incorrect timezone offset leading to minor inaccuracies when requesting the payloads for a second time.
Fixes an issue where Fitbit webhook subscriptions were not being created correctly for sleep events causing no sleep events to be pushed to our servers.
