Track Daily Activity Summaries

The `get_activity` tool retrieves daily summaries, giving you counts for steps and calories burned. You can check how far you moved just by running the function. Need more detail? Use `get_intraday_activity` to pull high-frequency activity data points throughout the day.

Get Core Physiological Measurements

The `get_measurements` tool lets you filter for specific health metrics using a provided type code. You can grab weight, height, or blood pressure readings (systolic/diastolic). It also handles body temperature checks and heart rate measurements via `get_heart_rate`. This makes pulling full patient profiles simple.

Analyze Sleep and Exercise History

Get a deep dive into your rest cycles using `get_sleep_details`, which breaks down sleep stages. You can also run `get_sleep_summary` for daily averages. For movement, the `get_workouts` tool pulls specific exercises—like running or cycling—including distance and calories burned.
