Pre-existing Data is a key feature in ROOK that enables the extraction and processing of users' historical information. This allows clients to access previously recorded data, providing a head start in understanding user health patterns without waiting for new data to accumulate. The data is versatile and can be used for a wide range of purposes, including enhancing descriptive analyses, supporting tailored health recommendations, or any other applications you may require.

  • API Access: Clients can retrieve up to 7 days of historical data directly through the API-based data sources, making it easy to integrate with existing workflows.

  • SDK Access: the SDK allows access to up to 29 days of historical data, offering a broader timeframe for identifying trends and patterns.

  • Pre-existing data ensures that clients have access to rich historical information, empowering them to make more informed decisions and deliver greater value to users from the moment they join. For example health screening, underwriting in insurance, personalized treatment, etc.

  • ROOKConnect integration is compatible with various data sources, including Android, Apple Health, Garmin, Fitbit, Health Connect, Polar, Oura, Whoop, and Withings. Compliance with privacy and security regulations is also ensured.


What are the benefits of using Pre-existing Data?

By using the Pre-existing Data feature, you can:

  • Access to Historical Data: Retrieve up to 7 days (API-based data sources) or 29 days (SDK-based data sources) of historical health data prior to connection.

  • ROOKScore Calculation: Use historical data to calculate an initial health score, providing immediate visibility into the user's health status.

Can I retrieve more than 29 days of historical data?

No, the maximum retrieval period is up to 7 days via the API-based data sources and 29 days via the SDK-based data sources. This limit is determined by the capabilities of the data sources and the design of the feature.
