- The /egvs endpoint enables retrieval of a user's estimated glucose value (EGV) data, including trend and status information.
Known Issues and Limitations
Full Access is not required for apps to access production data. All Limited Access apps can have up to 20 authorized users, thus enabling Registered Developers to test their prototype apps with multiple users without going through the upgrade process. This data access still requires user authentication and HIPAA authorization via the OAuth 2.0 process, which is described in the Authentication section of the Dexcom API site.
