What our users say


"The intake layer of Datadog’s self-serve analytics platform is largely built on Airbyte.Airbyte’s ease of use and extensibility allowed any team in the company to push their data into the platform - without assistance from the data team!"


“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”


“We chose Airbyte for its ease of use, its pricing scalability and its absence of vendor lock-in. Having a lean team makes them our top criteria. The value of being able to scale and execute at a high level by maximizing resources is immense”
1. Go to the Oura Developer Portal (https://cloud.ouraring.com/docs/).
2. Sign up for an account if you don't already have one.
3. Create a new application to obtain your client ID and client secret.
4. Note down the redirect URI you set, as it will be used in the authorization process.
1. Direct the user to the authorization URL, which will look something like this: ```
https://cloud.ouraring.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI&scope=email personal daily
```
2. The user will log in with their Oura account and authorize your application.
3. The user will be redirected to your redirect URI with a `code` parameter in the URL.
4. Exchange the authorization code for an access token by making a POST request to `https://api.ouraring.com/oauth/token` with the following parameters: - `grant_type`: "authorization_code"
- `code`: The authorization code you received
- `redirect_uri`: Your redirect URI
- `client_id`: Your client ID
- `client_secret`: Your client secret
1. Use the access token to make authenticated requests to the Oura API endpoints.
2. Choose the endpoint you want to fetch data from (e.g., `https://api.ouraring.com/v1/userinfo`, `https://api.ouraring.com/v1/sleep`, etc.).
3. Make a GET request to the endpoint with the Authorization header: ```
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
```
4. Parse the JSON response to extract the data you need.
1. Define the CSV headers based on the data structure you received from Oura.
2. Iterate over the data and map each entry to the corresponding CSV columns.
3. Handle any data conversion that might be necessary (e.g., converting timestamps to a readable format).
1. Open a new CSV file in write mode using a programming language of your choice (e.g., Python).
2. Write the headers to the first row of the CSV.
3. Write the data rows to the CSV file.
4. Close the file to ensure all data is saved properly.
Example in Python
Here's a simplified Python example that demonstrates the steps above:
```python
import requests
import csv
# Replace with your actual access token
access_token = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
# Oura API endpoint for sleep data
endpoint = 'https://api.ouraring.com/v1/sleep'
# Set up headers for authorization
headers = {
'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}'
}
# Make the GET request
response = requests.get(endpoint, headers=headers)
# Check if the request was successful
if response.status_code == 200:
sleep_data = response.json()
# Define your CSV headers based on the JSON structure
headers = ['date', 'duration', 'total', 'awake', 'rem', 'deep', 'light']
# Open a new CSV file
with open('oura_sleep_data.csv', 'w', newline='') as csvfile:
writer = csv.writer(csvfile)
# Write the header
writer.writerow(headers)
# Write the data rows
for entry in sleep_data['sleep']:
writer.writerow([
entry['summary_date'],
entry['duration'],
entry['total'],
entry['awake'],
entry['rem'],
entry['deep'],
entry['light']
])
else:
print('Failed to fetch data:', response.status_code)
```
Remember to replace `'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'` with your actual token and adjust the CSV headers based on the actual data structure returned by Oura.
1. Add error handling to your script to manage situations like API rate limits, expired tokens, or unexpected data formats.
2. Log errors and exceptions as they occur to make debugging easier.
1. Test your script thoroughly to ensure it handles various data scenarios and errors gracefully.
2. Validate the CSV output to ensure the data is correctly formatted and complete.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully move data from Oura to a CSV file without using third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
Oura is a purpose to develop the way we live our lives. Oura helps us to understand our body completely. It’s a symbol of how much our life has changed. Oura takes data privacy seriously. We only use your data to power your experience and deliver your individual insights. We never sell your data to third parties or use your data to sell advertising to other companies. Oura makes a ring that tracks your health stats and aims to help you sleep better.
Oura's API provides access to a wide range of data related to sleep, activity, and readiness. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through the API:
1. Sleep data: This includes information about the duration and quality of sleep, as well as the different stages of sleep (REM, deep, light).
2. Activity data: This includes information about the number of steps taken, calories burned, and active time.
3. Readiness data: This includes information about the body's readiness for physical activity, based on factors such as heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and body temperature.
4. Recovery data: This includes information about the body's recovery from physical activity, based on factors such as heart rate variability and resting heart rate.
5. Body data: This includes information about the body's physical state, such as weight, body temperature, and respiratory rate.
6. Trends data: This includes information about how the body's sleep, activity, and readiness levels have changed over time, allowing for long-term analysis and tracking.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
