If your Dexcom glucose stopped arriving for hours at a time, or for days, this was very likely why.
馃悰 Bug Fixes
- Dexcom gaps: Each Dexcom connection's sign-in has to be renewed every couple of hours. We renewed them all at once, and every hour hundreds of renewals failed, leaving those people without new readings until a later attempt got through. Renewals are now spread out and safe to retry, so connections stay current.
- Dexcom disconnected by mistake: A temporary error while renewing could disconnect a healthy Dexcom connection. Now only a sign-in that Dexcom has actually withdrawn disconnects you.
- Dexcom carbs, insulin and events going missing: Whole batches of events from Dexcom were turned away because one of them had been saved before, so carbs, insulin and exercise were dropped. Each event is now saved or updated on its own, and an event you delete in Dexcom is removed here too.
- Empty sleep cards: Garmin sometimes sends an empty sleep record, which showed in the feed as a night of zero minutes. Those are now ignored.
馃 Improvements
- Every 15 minutes: Dexcom, Nightscout and Tidepool are now checked for new data every 15 minutes instead of every hour.
馃摑 Notes
- Nothing to update or reconnect. This is a change on our servers.
