My endo doesn’t mind me using Xdrip+ or even Nightscout, but says that due to HIPA regulations they cannot get my #s off a web site and I have to FAX them in if I need tweaking help.

I know I read somewhere that there is a way to EXPORT the data from either Xdrip+ or Nightscout to some 3rd party app and then get that app to upload to clarity but it gave no details. I’m coming from a G6 if that makes a difference.

Any ideas please?

@bpollina @docslotnick is the resident expert on XDrip round these here parts. Might PM him to see if he knows.

@bpollina you might also consider xdrip to Tidepool which is free.

@bpollina XDrip+ doesn’t currently upload to any app except Nightscout or an app that uses the SiDiary csv format. But the developer is on the verge of making a deal with Tidepool to upload data to them. It shouldn’t be long.

Were you able to implement this? The ReadMe is not understandable, and even by guesswork it’s not apparent how to get this working. Any suggestions appreciated.

@ianrobertdouglas. I ended up deploying a heroku page with a NightScout instance that auto uploads from xdrip. I have then deployed spouses xdrip instance as a follower via NightScout. I have yet to be able to upload to any Clarity servers.

The Tidepool uploads were an option on Settings\>cloud upload in XDrip app. I am uploading every 20 minutes, and the data w/o contextual notes shows in Tidepool

@elver Thank you for that. Unfortunately, I face an SSL error when connecting to Tidepool. I’ve searched for some of these terms, but I’m not finding a solution so far.  
Meanwhile, nothing appears to be uploading to Dexcom’s servers, so neither Clarity nor Tidepool so far.  
Essentially, I was hoping to create a visual data archive, one from which I could extract reports on an ongoing basis for my son’s endo.

I get that with my NightScout setup, but it still works. For sure the user name and user pword are accurate, yes? Upload to https:\[app.tidepool.org](http://app.tidepool.org)? Possibly @docslotnick might have some valuable insight.

@ianrobertdouglas. Do you have a free NightScout site? The reporting features are better than Clarity, and so far my Endo is a fan. I also gave my Endo the sure address so she can see real time my bg levels. All free like Tidepool. I also upload to Tidepool

Hi @ianrobertdouglas You need to either uncheck the “use inegration service” and enter your normal Tidepool login info, or check it and set up a new account at [int-app.tidepool.org](http://int-app.tidepool.org). the int-app site was originally used just to test the load on tidepool’s servers and work out any bugs. There really is no reason anymore to start using the int-app site at this point.

If you don’t see that option, download the latest nightly build of xDrip+.

After you enter your tidepool credentials use the test button to make sure you’ve connected.

I checked and double-checked my username and password, but nothing is going through to Tidepool. I do have a Nightscout site. My setup is Dexcom G6 --\> iPhone (Spike app) --\> Apple Watch & Nightscout --\> iPads (Spike) & xDrip on my Android phone. I am looking for a means to capture, centralise and store/archive data, and filter it and make understandable reports from it. Because I want to monitor my son remotely (via Nightscout), as I understand it this prevents us using Clarity. I’m still exploring options, but Tidepool appeared to offer more or less what I need.

I haven’t been using the int-app site. So that checkbox has remained unchecked. Still, however, I get the SSL error and no data is relayed through to Tidepool.

@ianrobertdouglas. What happens when you tap “test tidepool connection”? You really can’t be refused a connection if your credentials are entered correctly. The app just uses the info you put in.

@ianrobertdouglas Do you have something set on your phone to prevent the ssl connection? Short of incorrect credentials, that would be the only thing preventing the connection.

I would recommend installing the latest nightly version of xDrip+ as this function has been heavily tweaked since its inception.

Not that I know of. But I live in Egypt which, let’s say, is not the most understanding country when it comes to people taking internet security into their own hands. It’s possible that it’s a problem with my mobile provider.

The version I have of xDrip+ is the nightly build from 22 February, but I see just now another build was published 3hrs ago. I’ll try upgrading, but I expect the problem is not in the app.

@ianrobertdouglas. I’ve been reading about ssl connections in Egypt. They use a protocol called DPI, or Deep Packet inspection, that resets HTTPS connections. I think automatic connections may be adversely affected under this protocol.

You might post a request on Github to see if this restriction has a workaround for Tidepool upload.

Good luck!
