Working with Participants

Inviting Participants to Connect

Create single or bulk invitation links so participants can connect their own Google Health or Garmin accounts, and set up your study's authorization page.

Blinding Fitbit Devices

Manually Connecting Participants

Manually connect study-controlled Fitbit or Garmin accounts to Fitabase by creating a participant ID, setting an observation window, and authorizing access.

Creating Sync Length on the Create Multiple Links Page

Set an optional sync length when creating multiple invitation links, so Fitabase collects a fixed number of days of data from when each participant connects.

Fitbit App Data Usage

Reusing Devices Across Participants

Reuse Fitbit or Garmin devices between participants: do a final sync, remove the device from the old account, and connect it to the new participant account.

Participant Tip Sheet

Plan syncing, battery charging, and compliance-check strategies for study participants, and learn how to reconnect a participant who loses their device.

Setting Windows for Data Collection

Set or change data collection sync windows for individual participants, or set a sync length for a batch of participants when creating invitations from a list.
