Hello

Any Freestyle Libre 2 power users can help with the below please?

1) How do I trigger the upload/download of data to the cloud?
2) Can I download the data including timestamp and measurement per minute? Can you show how the data looks like please?

Thanks!
 
1) How do I trigger the upload/download of data to the cloud?
First open a Libreview account on your laptop/computer: https://www.libreview.com/

If you are using the phone app to scan your Libre, your data is likely already there under the green arrow pictogram.
If you are using a reader, you'll need to connect it to your computer with a USB cable and the data will be under the blue arrow.



2) Can I download the data including timestamp and measurement per minute?
Not per minute, I don't think. Why would you want that?
Can you show how the data looks like please?
Just like the app and the reader, LibreView has lots of different reports: Daily trends, a monthly overview, a daily log and more. It would take lots of screenshots to show you, why not try for yourself and see what it looks like?
 
The data can be downloaded as a CSV data dump of all records stored. That is: 15 minute 'smoothed' BG, note records etc. Each has a separate data type. The header record will give you a clue.
