You can now link your ka72 account to a Garmin Connect account.

This will allow Garmin Connect to post your files direct to ka72 as soon as your session hits the cloud.

The linking is available to all registered users on the site (free and pro.) To set up your account link go to ka72.com/me/settings

Once it is set up, you can also use this page to limit the types of tracks that get posted to ka72.

How it works:
Sail with your watch as normal. When you are finished and save your session on the watch, after a while your device will typically pop up a message saying something like "Your activity is now ready to view"

Soon after this, open up ka72.com and you will see a banner at the top of the page advising you that your track has landed.

Open the link, check the track type and visibility, and hit post.

No more downloading/uploading. No more messing with zip files.

The integration is a work in progress. Please let me know if you hit any snags, or have any questions or suggestions for improvements.

Fantastic Dylan, you sure are doing some great work!!!!

Must have been the case, I reloaded the page on Android and all was good.

Awesome work Dylan!

I have been using something similar with Strava (cycling/running/sailing) for some time and was hoping it would arrive to a work flow for windsurfing pushed to GPSTC. Sounds like it is basically there which is great!

Is there any intention to make the data arrive at GPSTC totally touch free at any time? Sounds like you have to login to KA72 and instruct it to post to GPSTC at the current time. Makes sense to have some way to avoid sessions being accidentaly incorrectly posted.

Also, quick question. I use the GPSTC datafield in the recommended way on a garmin 965 which I believe is for "Other" activity. I have just set up KA72 with that activity type to be imported. I don;t use "other" for anything else, so I presume that is correct for this common use case?
