API documentation

Dexcom Rest API Documentation

Supported Operations

The connector supports the following operations:

  • EGVS
    • 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Dexcom provide a test environment for analyzing returned results from an API call?

Dexcom provides a sandbox API environment which you can make API requests to. To access this you can change the endpoint, security values as well as the action calls to https://sandbox-api.dexcom.com. If you would like to change back to the production endpoint you will need to change to https://api.dexcom.com.
