LibreLinkUp with Pro Connect

Glucose from a linked LibreLinkUp follower; no insulin, carbohydrate or profile import.

Connect FreeStyle Libre through LibreLinkUp

The usual Pro Connect path for Libre 2, Libre 3 and Libre 3 Plus is a LibreLinkUp follower account that already shows the person’s readings. Sensor and regional app behavior determine whether readings arrive continuously or depend on scans.

Prepare the follower account

Use the manufacturer app’s sharing/connected-app workflow to invite the follower. Accept the invitation in LibreLinkUp and confirm the intended person’s current glucose and timestamp there. A LibreView report login is not automatically the same functioning follower connection.

Connect to Nightscout Pro

  1. Open Site Settings → PRO CONNECT.
  2. Select the LibreLinkUp source and the correct Timezone.
  3. Enter the LibreLinkUp login in CONNECT_LINK_UP_USERNAME and CONNECT_LINK_UP_PASSWORD.
  4. If the account follows multiple people, use CONNECT_LINK_UP_PATIENT_ID for the intended person where required. Do not guess another person’s ID; ask support if selection is unclear.
  5. Select SAVE PRO CONNECT and compare a new LibreLinkUp reading with Nightscout. Typical delay is 5–10 minutes.

This route does not import a complete insulin/carbohydrate or profile stream. Sensor-start metadata is not a pump-treatment history.

Libre 1 and scanning-only routes

Libre 1 readings that actually reach the linked LibreLinkUp account use the same Pro Connect steps above. With a scanning-based app/reader, updates depend on those scans and source uploads; this is not continuous automatic sensor collection. Pro Connect cannot manufacture readings absent from LibreLinkUp. Confirm the exact sensor, country, phone app and source timestamps when diagnosing gaps.

For an already working Android xDrip+ sensor/bridge setup, use xDrip+ upload. For an already working iPhone setup, use xDrip4iOS upload. Sensor/transmitter compatibility must be checked with the app before buying hardware. Juggluco is an Android option, not an iOS app.

No readings?

If LibreLinkUp is also stale, resolve the invitation/source-app/cloud problem first. If LibreLinkUp is fresh, check Pro Connect Logs for authentication, patient-selection or regional errors. Do not keep changing passwords or run two glucose uploaders in parallel.

Check your setup

Check whether your site has a current glucose reading, then confirm the rest of your guide separately.

We record the reading check and your confirmation separately. The report does not save glucose values, your site name or your account details.
