Download Activity Details

When I view an activity from the history page I see a brief summary of the activity and graphs of heart rate and other data.

When I download the activity from that page I get a tcx file with the brief summary data but without the heart rate or other detailed data. It would be nice to be able to download a tcx with the detailed data.

Right now, the Fitbit API only provides detailed tcx when you use GPS. We could generate our own tcx with heart rate and calorie stats pulled from the time series API (usually less granular, like minute level) but it would take some work.

What software do you use to view your tcx files? It'd help to be able to test the outputted tcx files against

I usually use a text editor to examine the file and then upload it to Strava One minute granularity would not be ideal, but it is a lot better than the alternative of no data.
