Huh, I completely missed that. I've been using python-garminconnect [0] for a few months without issues. I agree though that it's annoying, though not reason enough for me to switch away from Garmin yet.

Already minted tokens work, they broke the login process.

For now its just tls fingerprinting, not client attestation - so, I managed to implement a working solution. But I am sure they will tighten the screws still further.

Same here. I've been scraping the data from my Garmin watch for years with very little problems (first with https://github.com/tcgoetz/GarminDB, then https://github.com/sealbro/dotnet.garmin.connect).

The only annoyance is that Garmin requires 2FA if you enable the ECG feature on your smart watch/fitness tracker, but I have a small program that reads the 2FA codes from my Gmail inbox and supplies them to the scraper without too much trouble.

Have you looked at the feasibility of making your own CIQ app to push data from the watch to your alternate internet endpoint?

I have the impression there are permissions and APIs to access sensor history and activity records, but I haven't had a need to dig in and learn what restrictions there might be...
