You can connect an Oura Ring to a Trainerize client in two different ways. Both work — but one is clearly faster and easier.
Method 1: Send Connection Invite Manually
This is the manual way to connect Oura to a specific client.
Steps
Go to Trainerize Clients
Select the client you want to connect
Click Oura Data
Click Send Connection Invite
Send the invite via Trainerize messages
What Happens Next
The client receives a login link
They log in to their Oura account
The connection is completed automatically
Data starts syncing within a few minutes
Important Security Note
The client must authenticate within 5 minutes after receiving the link.
If they wait longer:
The link expires
They'll see an error
You'll need to send a new invite
This timeout exists for security reasons.
Method 2 (Recommended): Client Uses /oura Command
This is the fastest and recommended method.
Steps (Client Side)
Client opens Trainerize chat
Client types:
/oura
Sends the message
What Happens Automatically
FitMetrics detects the command
Your configured AI message sender responds instantly
The client receives:
Clear instructions
The secure Oura connection link
Client logs in and authorizes Oura
Sync starts automatically
Why We Recommend the /oura Method
Faster for you
Easier for clients
Fewer errors
Link generated on demand, so less chance of expiry
Fully automated
If you're onboarding many clients, this is the best practice.
After Connection
Once connected, Oura data starts syncing automatically. The following data types will appear inside FitMetrics:
Readiness — daily readiness scores and contributors
Sleep — sleep scores, duration, efficiency, sleep stages (REM, deep, light)
Activity — daily activity scores, steps, calories
Workouts — logged workout sessions
Heart Rate — heart rate data
Initial sync may take a few minutes.
Summary
Two ways to connect Oura:
Manual: Trainerize Clients → Oura Data → Send Invite
Recommended: Client types
/ourain Trainerize chat
For best results and fewer issues, always use the /oura command within Trainerize Messages.
