Hints on usage of iob: Insulin-on-board? #86

I did read the manual about the limitations of IOB data added as an “activity”. Still wondering if it’s ok to ask about how people have made use of this. Perhaps someone come up with a hack to get it displayed in NS somehow?

Thanks!

@bjornoleh I don't think it's currently possible to get the IOB amount to show in the Nightscout UI, however you can get the value from the API by making a request to NIGHTSCOUT_URL/api/v1/activity.json?find[activityType]=tconnect_iob, which returns, e.g.:


[
  {
    "_id": "62d85a6d25fef6066b28ac6f",
    "activityType": "tconnect_iob",
    "iob": 14.42,
    "created_at": "2022-07-20 15:30:28-04:00",
    "enteredBy": "Pump (tconnectsync)"
  },
  ...
}

It's probably possible to patch Nightscout to show this, but I haven't looked into it heavily.

Thanks!

I also wonder if it would be possible to write IOB data as devicestatus instead? Perhaps as a Loop or OpenAPS devicestatus? Then I imagine it could be displayed in one of those pills, and the data would hopefully also be propagated to the IOB pill. Surely I could be missing something here.
