Oura Data Extractor

Vern's Oura extractor imports a new user's other data — daily activity, daily readiness, daily sleep, and heart rate — into your product through a single managed migration, handling Oura's auth, pagination, and rate limits for you. It's built for teams onboarding customers off Oura who want their data in your app from day one.

Objects Vern extracts

Vern extracts the full set of queryable Oura objects (8 total), including: Daily Activity, Daily Readiness, Daily Sleep, Heart Rate, Sessions, Sleep Periods, Tags, and Workouts.

Output schema

Normalized JSON per object with referential keys preserved, so the relationships between your user's records survive the import. Timestamps are returned in ISO 8601. Delivered as JSON or CSV, or loaded straight into your own application database or pushed to your API — whatever your product expects.

Where it can land

Your own application database (Postgres, MySQL), a direct push to your API or webhook, or JSON/CSV files, plus another other system (Aviationstack, Bluetally, Breezometer) when a user is switching tools.

Source details

Built for the source type shown above, with extractor content refreshed from the collection record.

Managed by Vern

The details you normally have to build yourself.

Authentication

API key / access token. Your user pastes their Oura API key once when they sign up; Vern stores it encrypted and attaches it to every request, handling header signing and retries so you never touch the raw credential. See Oura's authentication guide.

Pagination

Vern detects and handles Oura's paging model (cursor, page-number, or offset) internally and returns one consistent, de-duplicated result set — so you import a user's complete data without ever managing page tokens.

Rate limits and gotchas

Oura enforces its own API rate limits. Vern queues and throttles requests internally so importing a new user's data never trips a 429 — even on a large account.

API-key sources rarely surface their true rate ceilings until you hit a 429 mid-import, and many silently cap page size. Vern throttles to stay under the limit and normalizes paging so a partial pull never lands a user in your product with missing data.

API quickstart

1. Create a migration for Oura
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations \
  -H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": "Oura → Postgres", "source": "Oura" }'
→ { "migration_id": "mig_..." }
2. Generate the extraction recipe (pulls live via the Oura API)
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/runs \
  -H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "kind": "generate", "extract_via_api": true }'
3. Run the approved extraction
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/runs \
  -H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "kind": "execute" }'
4. Download the normalized CSV export
curl https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/exports/{template} \
  -H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" -o oura_export.csv

A cleaner way to extract without rebuilding source-specific plumbing.

Common questions

Can I keep a user's Oura data in sync after the first import? Vern supports re-running an import on demand; incremental change tracking depends on what Oura's API exposes for each object.

Can I move a user from Oura to Aviationstack? Yes — Vern normalizes the Oura data model into typed tables that map cleanly onto Aviationstack and into your own product.

What does it cost to read the Oura API? Oura's own API access follows Oura's pricing/plan; Vern is billed separately per import. Check Oura's developer docs for their current limits.
