| Name | Supported | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Nightscout | ✅ | Uses APIv3, and thus does not make use of your API secret, but instead a token. |
| Dexcom Share | ✅ | Use your Dexcom account credentials, and ensure you have at least one follower. |
| Libre LinkUp | 🛑 | Abbott is deprecating the API used for this and have not published a replacement yet. Once a new API is available this can be explored again. |
If you have requests for any other CGM data providers, please get in touch through a ticket.

To configure nightscout, input your Nightscout instance URL with no path. Eg. https://my.ns.service.com. If you use a non-standard port, add that after the domain http://my.ns.service.com:1337.
For the Token field, you need to create a token (referred to as subjects in the Nightscout admin console) in nightscout with the readable permission.
The 1.3.0 release of GlucoseBar adds support for the algorithmic output from the Trio project. If you are using Trio as the AID system for your insulin delivery, you can now see some of the Trio algorithmic output in GlucoseBar, presented in a familiar way by enabling the integration in the Nightscout CGM settings screen.
To get up and running with Dexcom Share, please ensure you already have a follower set up using the normal Dexcom Share flow. Once that prerequisite is met, please continue using your normal Dexcom credentials. Remember to select the correct region.
