Enhance-d does not currently support a direct integration with Medtronic’s cloud or pump data sources. However, there are ways to bring glucose readings from Medtronic CGM systems into Enhance-d using community tools and Apple Health.
Enhance-d supports glucose data only. Insulin delivery, basal rates, and bolus histories are not supported at this time.
Supported Paths for Medtronic Glucose Data
1. Nightscout Community Integration (Android or iOS)
Enhance-d can connect to a Nightscout site to retrieve glucose data that is being uploaded via community workflows.
This option is considered community-supported and DIY in nature. It uses open-source tools and is not an official Medtronic or Enhance-d clinical integration.
How this works
You upload Medtronic CGM glucose readings into a Nightscout site using community tools such as:
xDrip+ (Android)
Guardian Monitor (iOS)
Other community upload tools that can read from the Medtronic app or CareLink data
Nightscout hosts your glucose data online
Enhance-d connects to your Nightscout site to read glucose values
How to connect Nightscout to Enhance-d
In Enhance-d, go to Integrations
Select Nightscout
Enter your Nightscout site’s URL (HTTPS) and API secret
Save and confirm
Once connected, glucose values visible in Nightscout will appear in Enhance-d.
Important notes
Nightscout is open-source and user-managed
This is a community-supported pathway, not an official medical integration
Data may be delayed depending on your setup
Medtronic insulin delivery or pump events are not included
2. Sweet Dreams App + Apple Health (iOS Only)
Users on iPhone can bring Medtronic CGM data into Enhance-d by using the Sweet Dreams app to bridge through Apple Health.
This path does not appear in the official Medtronic support article but is a valid way to get Medtronic glucose data into Apple Health, and then into Enhance-d.
How this works
Medtronic CGM data uploads to CareLink
The Sweet Dreams app pulls glucose data from CareLink
Sweet Dreams writes glucose data into Apple Health
Enhance-d reads glucose from Apple Health
Setup steps
Install Sweet Dreams from the App Store
Sign in with your Medtronic/CareLink account inside Sweet Dreams
Open Apple Health
Go to Sources
Enable Sweet Dreams to write glucose data
In Enhance-d:
Go to Integrations
Enable Apple Health
Grant access to glucose data
Once connected, glucose values written to Apple Health will sync into Enhance-d.
Requirements
iPhone with Apple Health
Sweet Dreams app installed
CareLink credentials
Notes
This is currently the simplest Apple Health path for iOS users
Glucose values are the only data shared
Pump insulin events are not included
What Is Not Supported
Direct cloud API access between Medtronic and Enhance-d
Real-time glucose via an official Medtronic API
Insulin pump delivery histories and other Medtronic pump settings
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Nightscout required for Medtronic?
Medtronic does not offer a public glucose export API that third parties can use. Nightscout acts as a bridge by collecting glucose uploads through community tools and making them available for services like Enhance-d.
Can I use both Nightscout and Apple Health together?
Yes. You can connect both Nightscout and Apple Health to Enhance-d. If they both contain glucose data, Enhance-d will read from both sources.
Does this include insulin delivery data?
No. These methods mainly bring glucose values into Enhance-d. Medtronic pump or insulin delivery may be supported depending on the tool used.
Troubleshooting Tips
Enhance-d shows no glucose after connecting Nightscout
Make sure glucose values are actually appearing in your Nightscout site first
Ensure your Nightscout URL is HTTPS
Confirm the API secret is correct
Apple Health shows no glucose
Check that Sweet Dreams is authorised in Apple Health
Verify that glucose readings show in Apple Health before opening Enhance-d
Glucose is delayed
Some community-based Nightscout upload tools are not real-time
Sync timing depends on your specific setup
