BMR/Active Calories in Activities

[HenningoDK]

I would like to see the 'Active Calories' included for each individual activity in 'garmin_activities.db' table 'activities'. It exists already as part of the daily summary, but I cannot find it as activity-specific in the database.

The .json files for activity details include values for "calories" and "bmrCalories".
I believe the calculation for Active Calories is = Total Calories - BMR Calories.

Adding either BMR Calories, Active Calories or both as separate fields would be great!

I believe the calories for an activity, field=calories, is the activities contribution to active calories. I think you should just use the calories field.

Thank you for the reply. The calories-field value matches what is called Total Calories Burned in the Garmin Connect-app though, so it is not exactly what I am looking for. I need to subtract the Resting Calories or BMR Calories, but for now, I can get only get to that number by subtracting an estimate of that value.
