Exist

Exist API integration with managed OAuth. Read health and fitness tracking data, retrieve correlations and insights, manage attribute ownership, and track wellness metrics. Use this skill when users want to query tracked health data, discover correlations between metrics, read fitness averages, or analyze lifestyle patterns.

Access health and fitness tracking data from chat -- retrieve tracked attributes, discover correlations between metrics, get AI-generated insights, and manage data ownership. Powered by ClawLink for hosted OAuth.

Setup in 3 Steps

Step 1: Install	Step 2: Pair Account	Step 3: Connect Exist
		App-specific connection GIF coming soon
Run the install command in OpenClaw	Sign in and approve the device	Open the dashboard and connect Exist

Install

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart

Quick Start

// 1. Get your profile
clawlink_call_tool({ tool: "exist_get_user_profile", parameters: {} })

// 2. See your tracked attributes
clawlink_call_tool({ tool: "exist_get_attributes_with_values", parameters: {} })

// 3. Discover correlations
clawlink_call_tool({ tool: "exist_get_correlations", parameters: {} })

Authentication

ClawLink handles OAuth with Exist. No API keys needed. Connect at claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=exist. Granted OAuth scopes determine which attribute fields are returned.

Connection Management

// List connections
clawlink_list_integrations()

// Verify
clawlink_call_tool({ tool: "exist_get_user_profile", parameters: {} })

Security & Permissions

• Read tools are safe and require no confirmation
• Write tools (acquire/increment/release ownership) require confirmation
• Releasing ownership is high-impact and stops data flow for that attribute

Code Examples

Example 1: Explore your tracked data

// Get profile and timezone
const profile = await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_get_user_profile",
  parameters: {}
});

// Get attributes with values
const attrs = await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_get_attributes_with_values",
  parameters: {}
});

// Get weekly averages
const averages = await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_get_averages",
  parameters: { include_historical: true }
});

Example 2: Discover correlations and insights

// Find correlations between metrics
const correlations = await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_get_correlations",
  parameters: {}
});

// Get AI-generated insights
const insights = await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_get_insights",
  parameters: {}
});

Example 3: Write tracking data

// Acquire ownership of a step count attribute
await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_acquire_attribute_ownership",
  parameters: {
    attribute_names: ["steps"]
  }
});

// Increment step count
await clawlink_call_tool({
  tool: "exist_increment_attribute_values",
  parameters: {
    data: [{ date: "2026-06-08", attribute: "steps", value: 500 }]
  }
});

Discovery Workflow

1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm exist is connected.
2. Call clawlink_list_tools --integration exist to see the live catalog.
3. Use clawlink_search_tools({ query: "correlation", integration: "exist" }) to find specific tools.

Execution Workflow

READ (safe):     get_user_profile → get_attributes_with_values → get_correlations → get_insights
WRITE (confirm): acquire_attribute_ownership → increment_attribute_values
DELETE (high):   release_attribute_ownership

Notes

• OAuth scopes control which attribute fields are visible -- missing fields indicate insufficient scopes
• Increment does not work with string, scale, or time-of-day attributes
• Releasing ownership stops data flow permanently for that attribute
• Use the profile timezone when interpreting date-based attributes

Error Handling

Status / Error	Meaning
401 Unauthorized	OAuth token expired -- reconnect at dashboard
403 Forbidden	Insufficient OAuth scopes for requested attributes
404 Not Found	Attribute template or attribute does not exist
422 Unprocessable	Invalid attribute type for increment operation

Troubleshooting

Tools Not Visible

• Start a fresh OpenClaw chat to reload plugin catalog
• Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm pairing

Missing Attribute Data

• Check granted OAuth scopes during connection
• Some attributes require specific integrations to be connected in Exist first
• Use exist_get_attribute_templates to verify available attributes
