For Agents

Access Oura Ring health and wellness data: retrieve sleep metrics, readiness scores, activity data, heart rate, HRV, temperature, stress levels, and configure webhooks for real-time updates.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Oura Ring API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Oura Ring API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

View OpenAPI Document

The Oura Ring API (V2) provides programmatic access to health and wellness data collected by the Oura Ring wearable device. The API exposes detailed biometric data including sleep tracking, readiness scores, activity metrics, heart rate variability (HRV), body temperature, stress levels, and daily movement. Oura users and partner applications can access this data through OAuth2 authentication with user consent. The API is designed for health apps, research studies, wellness platforms, and personal data integrations with a strong focus on webhook-based data delivery for real-time updates.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Oura Ring API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Personalized Health and Wellness Apps

Health apps can integrate Oura data to provide personalized recommendations based on sleep quality, readiness, and activity. GET /v2/usercollection/daily_sleep retrieves sleep metrics, GET /v2/usercollection/daily_readiness provides readiness scores, and GET /v2/usercollection/daily_activity returns activity summaries. Apps can correlate this data with nutrition, meditation, or fitness plans to optimize user health outcomes.

GET /v2/usercollection/daily_sleep for the date range, GET /v2/usercollection/daily_readiness for recovery status, then combine data to generate personalized wellness recommendations.

Clinical Research and Health Studies

Researchers can collect longitudinal health data from study participants wearing Oura Rings. Webhook subscriptions configured with POST /v2/webhook/subscription provide real-time data as participants sync, and historical data retrieval covers the full study period. The API supports sleep studies, stress research, temperature monitoring for illness prediction, and recovery optimization studies with detailed biometric data.

POST /v2/webhook/subscription to receive real-time participant data, then GET /v2/usercollection/daily_sleep and GET /v2/usercollection/heartrate for historical baseline data when participants enroll.

Fitness and Training Optimization

Fitness platforms can optimize training loads based on readiness and recovery metrics. GET /v2/usercollection/daily_readiness indicates whether users should push hard or recover, GET /v2/usercollection/workout_session provides exercise heart rate zones, and GET /v2/usercollection/daily_activity tracks daily movement. Coaches can adjust workout intensity based on HRV trends and sleep quality to prevent overtraining.

GET /v2/usercollection/daily_readiness to check recovery status, then adjust the day's workout plan based on readiness score and HRV trends from GET /v2/usercollection/heartrate.

Corporate Wellness Programs

Employers can integrate Oura data into wellness programs to track employee health metrics (with consent) and provide incentives for sleep, activity, and recovery. Aggregated data informs program design, while individual metrics drive personalized coaching. Webhooks enable real-time engagement like sleep improvement challenges or activity goals with immediate feedback.

POST /v2/webhook/subscription to track participant engagement, then GET /v2/usercollection/daily_sleep and GET /v2/usercollection/daily_activity to aggregate wellness metrics and award program incentives.

AI Agent for Health Data Analysis

Let an AI agent analyze Oura health data for a user — identifying sleep patterns, detecting recovery issues, correlating temperature trends with illness, and generating health insights. Through Jentic, the agent loads only the required operations and Oura OAuth tokens are injected at execution time.

Use the Jentic search query 'get oura sleep data' to find GET /v2/usercollection/daily_sleep, load its schema, and execute with date range to analyze sleep trends and generate insights.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Oura OAuth2 tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault and injected as the Authorization Bearer header at execution time. User tokens never appear in agent prompts or transcripts.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent such as 'get sleep data' or 'retrieve readiness score' and Jentic returns the matching endpoint with its schema.

Time to first call

Direct Oura integration: 2-3 days to implement OAuth2, model data structures, and configure webhooks. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Oura Ring API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Oura API use?

The Oura API uses OAuth2 authentication. Users must consent to share their data with your application through the OAuth flow. Access tokens are included in the Authorization header as Bearer tokens. Through Jentic, tokens are managed securely and injected at execution time.

How many users can access my API application?

API applications are limited to 10 users before requiring approval from Oura. Once approved, there is no user limit. Register your application at cloud.ouraring.com/oauth/applications.

What are the rate limits for the Oura API?

The API is limited to 5000 requests per 5-minute period. However, with proper webhook implementation, you are unlikely to hit rate limits. Webhooks are the recommended approach for ongoing data access.

How do I get real-time data updates?

Configure webhooks with POST /v2/webhook/subscription to receive notifications approximately 30 seconds after users sync their ring with the mobile app. This is the preferred method for ongoing data access.

What data types require users to open the Oura app?

Sleep data requires users to open the Oura app to sync. Daily activity and stress data may sync in the background. Different data types have different sync behaviors.

Can I access historical data before a user connects?

When a user first connects via OAuth, you can retrieve their historical data using date range parameters on the relevant endpoints. After the initial historical pull, use webhooks for ongoing updates.
