Connect Medtronic

Use the current Pro Connect CareLink guide when the relevant CareLink account receives live data from your device. Start with the secure Authenticate CareLink button; the manual redirect is a fallback.

Check the whole device path

Record your pump model, sensor model, phone app and country. The CareLink family is supported, but a website report alone does not prove the live endpoint used by Pro Connect contains the required data.

A MiniMed 780G using Guardian, Simplera or Instinct still uses the Medtronic/CareLink path appropriate to that system. Do not select LibreLinkUp solely because Abbott makes the Instinct sensor. Exact regional pump/sensor combinations need confirmation when data is unavailable.

InPen report sharing with CareLink does not establish a supported live pen-treatment import. Use unlisted-source guidance for that question.

Existing legacy uploader?

If xDrip+ already has current readings, its Nightscout upload guide applies. A new installation should not begin with an unverified Guardian Monitor or old USB/OTG pump guide; see legacy Medtronic app routes.

Missing data

Compare current CareLink data, Pro Connect Logs and Nightscout timestamps. Reauthenticate when the error identifies an expired/rejected login; repeating authentication will not repair an upstream data gap or unsupported event type.
