Authenticated: Failed to upload activity to Garmin. Flur Exception

[JonasPhilippon]

Hi,
Brilliant work, if this works! I’ve been trying to find a solution for uploading all body composition data to Garmin for a while.

I’m trying to manually enter my data and upload it to Garmin through the web app. I’ve tried using Safari and Bluefy. I also tried using different inputs, with or without decimals and with different login details to make sure it wasn’t the input or the authentication. I’m on iPhone.

I got the same error in both browsers:

AuthStatus: Authenticated, LastError log: Failed to upload to Garmin. Flur Exception.

Thanks

Hi @JonasPhilippon

Thanks for a report. What is you iOS version and iPhone model? Do you have 2FA/MFA enabled? It occurs every time? Like in the morning and afternoon for example?

Hi
I have the same issue
Looks like it happens due to Garmin's 2-step verification
It happens using the bluefy browser on my iPhone and with an Android app

Hi @lswiderski
I'm on the newest iOS version (17.2.1) and an iPhone 15.

Since you're asking about time of day, I decided to test during a few days. The problem only occurs in the morning (from 06-12). But it is not consistent. Most times I've succeeded. But look at the last test at 10.13. That was a success in the morning:

All times are CET.

11.20: Fail
11.39 Fail
21.47 Success
07.13 Fail
12.26 Success
19.21 Success
00.38 Success
08.10 Fail
10.13 Success

Do you know why it is failing the the morning?

Edit: I do not have 2-step verification on.

The problem is the proxy api that creates the .fit file and sends it to garmin. Its resources are shared among all users of the application. If a couple of people enter the wrong data at the same time, Garmin sees it from its side as if someone tried to do it from 1 device and blocks the traffic from the api for a short while

As soon as I find a free moment I will try to solve this problem. My temporary suggestion is not to close Bluefy with the already measured data in case the shipment fails, and try again later.
