OURA_API

Interact with v2 of the Oura API using Personal Access Tokens, OAuth2, or the Sandbox environment.

Available as:

  • ESM module: JSR
  • CommonJS module: NPM

⚠️ Oura API platform Deprecation Warning - Personal Access Tokens

The Oura API platform will deprecate Personal Access Tokens by the end of 2025. This is part of an upcoming API platform update and claims to have no impact on production applications. The Oura API will remain fully available for integration.

For more information about this deprecation, see the Oura API documentation.

For development and testing, we recommend:

  • Development server: Run deno run --allow-net examples/client-oauth.ts for easy OAuth2 access token generation
  • Sandbox mode: Use the sandbox environment for testing without real data (see Sandbox Environment section below)

For production applications, please use OAuth2 as outlined in our authentication instructions below.


⚡️ Quickstart

Installation

# Deno
deno add jsr:@pinta365/oura-api

# Bun
bunx jsr add @pinta365/oura-api

# Node.js
npx jsr add @pinta365/oura-api

# NPM (CommonJS)
npm install oura_api --save

Basic Usage (ESM)

import { Oura } from "@pinta365/oura-api";

const accessToken = "YOUR_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN";
const oura = new Oura(accessToken);

const personalInfo = await oura.getPersonalInfo();
console.log(personalInfo);

Basic Usage (CommonJS)

const { Oura } = require("oura_api");
// ... (same as above)

See the examples folder for more detailed implementations.

🧪 Sandbox Environment (Testing)

The Oura API’s sandbox environment (Docs) is perfect for development. It provides sample data so you don’t need a real Oura account to test your application.

const ouraSandboxClient = new Oura({ useSandbox: true });
// ...Make API calls with `ouraSandboxClient`

🔑 OAuth2 Support

Our library simplifies OAuth2 authentication with these functions:

  • generateAuthUrl(scopes: string[], state?: string): string

    • Generates the authorization URL for the user.
  • async exchangeCodeForToken(code: string): Promise<OAuth2TokenResponse>

    • Exchanges the received authorization code for access and refresh tokens.
  • async refreshAccessToken(suppliedRefreshToken: string): Promise<OAuth2TokenResponse>

    • Refreshes an expired access token.
  • async revokeAccessToken(accessToken: string): Promise<boolean>

    • Revokes the specified access token.

Example Usage (Simplified) See the examples folder and full-oauth-server.ts for a basic implementation using Hono.

import { OuraOAuth } from "@pinta365/oura-api";

const oura = new OuraOAuth({
    clientId: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    clientSecret: "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
    redirectUri: "http://localhost:8000/callback",
});

// 1. Generate the authorization URL with the personal scope
const authUrl = oura.generateAuthUrl(["personal"]);

// 2. Redirect the user to `authUrl`
// ... (Implementation in your web application)

// 3. In your callback route, exchange the code for tokens
app.get("/callback", async (c) => {
    const code = c.req.query("code");
    const tokens = await oura.exchangeCodeForToken(code);

    // ... Store tokens securely and use the access_token for API calls
});

🚀 Client-Side Only OAuth Flow (Development)

For easy development and testing, we provide sample code for the client-side only OAuth flow (implicit grant). This flow is perfect for getting Access Tokens quickly during development.

Development Server:

Run the included example development server for testing:

deno run --allow-net examples/client-oauth.ts

Then open http://localhost:3000 in your browser and click “Start OAuth Flow” to get your access token.

Note: This flow doesn’t support refresh tokens - tokens expire after 30 days and require re-authentication.

Additional info concerning the webhook API

Webhooks enable near real-time Oura data updates and are recommended for getting the latest information. The subscription workflow is implemented in this library – see the Webhook docs for details.

⚠️ I have not been able to fully verify this yet but the subscription workflow has been implemented.
