LibreLinkUp HTTP-Dump

This document describes the HTTP communication of LibreLinkUp which functions as follower app to receive cgm data. Some data in the responses were masked.

Context

This dump was created on an android device with LibreLinkUp app. Capturing was done with HttpToolkit over adb.

API Url

The global api url is https://api.libreview.io. If you are placed in europe you can use https://api-eu.libreview.io instead.

Headers

The following list includes general purpose headers but also specific ones which are required to get correct responses:

General purpose

'accept-encoding': 'gzip'
'cache-control': 'no-cache'
'connection': 'Keep-Alive'
'content-type': 'application/json'

Specific

The following headers are required and needs to be setted to get correct responses. There might be alternative values which are not known.

'product': 'llu.android'
'version': '4.2.1',

Request Flow

To get cgm data from the api it is required to fire at least three requests:

1. Login and retrieve JWT Token
2. Get connections of patients to get patientId
3. Retrieve cgm data of specific patient

Login

This request expects credentials and will return a JWT Token which is required to call auth-needed endpoints.

Endpoint POST /llu/auth/login

}

The JWT Token is present in data.authTicket.token and is valid for nearly 6 month which is quite long. This is extremly long and actually you cannot invalidate this token why you should not share it with anyone.

For the next requests you have to set this token in the headers:

'authorization': Bearer [YOUR_JWT_TOKEN]

Get connections

To be able to retrieve cgm data you have to determine the patientId of the person who is sharing his data with you.

The datapart includes all persons who are sharing their data with you. To retrieve cgm data you need data[0].patientId.

Get cgm data

Now both prerequirements (JWT Token and Patient ID) are met and you can retrieve the cgm data.

The last measurement is present in glucoseMeasurement:

{
  "FactoryTimestamp": "5/21/2022 1:38:50 PM",
  "Timestamp": "5/21/2022 3:38:50 PM",

}

Instead you can find historical measurements in graphData. The data has the same shape as above.

@sgmoore I do use the "graph" request and it is always 15 minutes behind. oops I need to try "data/connection/glucoseMeasurement" be right back...

@sgmoore Thank you so much! The data was right in front of me and I didn't realize it. It is present in a few places:

1. "connections/data/glucoseMeasurement"
2. "connections/data/glucoseItem"
3. "graph/data/connection/glucoseMeasurement"

I am so happy I got this going. I can now integrate it with my diabetes management app.

It might very well be a Europe server thing. When I look at my Libre link up app it only gives me data every 15 minutes. Even when I write a program to access it it only gives me new data every 15 minutes. Chris

I use the Europe server. Maybe that one is quicker. — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub https://gist.github.com/khskekec/6c13ba01b10d3018d816706a32ae8ab2#gistcomment-5974809 or unsubscribe https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/ACLSCIGV7ZPMZOK54YHV3IL4KW4MHBFHORZGSZ3HMVZKMY3SMVQXIZNMON2WE2TFMN2F65DZOBS2WR3JON2EG33NNVSW45FGORXXA2LDOOIYFJDUPFYGLJDHNFZXJJLWMFWHKZNJGEYTMNBTGMZTKOFKMF2HI4TJMJ2XIZLTSOBKK5TBNR2WLKJRGEYTAOBXG4YTNJDOMFWWLKDBMN2G64S7NFSIFJLWMFWHKZNEORZHKZNENZQW2ZN3ORUHEZLBMRPXAYLSORUWG2LQMFXHIX3BMN2GS5TJOR4YFJLWMFWHKZNEM5UXG5FENZQW2ZNLORUHEZLBMRPXI6LQMU .

you can do it every around 45secs but api is janky sometimes so 1min is safe, i do it to log / compile for analytics etc ( been flawless )

@gjkoolen how are you able to get data every 5 minutes when the server does an update very 30 minutes?

the raw data is like 45sec, 1min pull the raw data per min from the api and store it ( i avoid the managed data has weird compressions when it sanitizes ) i been doing this for 50k+ readings no issues
