Linking Physitrack to your Power Diary Account
It's time to link Physitrack to your Power Diary account. First, start by generating an API key in Power Diary. Then, simply copy that API key to Physitrack. Here’s how:

- Go to Settings > Session Notes > Physitrack.
- On the Physitrack sub-menu, select API Keys
- Click on the blue + Add API Key button.
- Enter a name that will help you remember what your API key is for. For example, we have named our API key Jackie Ellis - Physitrack. You can also use this pattern i.e. Name + Physitrack to make it easy to remember the purpose of your API key. After creating it, click Save and Close.
- Your API Key will be generated. Copy this key immediately and save it somewhere safe and secure. For security reasons, you won’t be able to see this key again once you move away from this page.

Using Physitrack with Power Diary
To use the integration, simply open a client’s profile in Power Diary and navigate to Integrations → Physitrack as shown here:
Physitrack will open in a new tab in your browser and take you directly to that client’s Physitrack profile.
To return to Power Diary, simply click on the Power Diary tab open in your browser.
Note: If this is the first time you have connected to Physitrack from Power Diary for this client, Physitrack will create a new client record in its system. The client's details from their Power Diary profile will automatically be populated in Physitrack including their name, date of birth, email address and telephone number.
Handy Tips 💡
- If there is no Date of Birth in the client's profile in Power Diary, Physitrack will set the year of birth to 1960 when creating a record for that client. To prevent confusion, ensure that your clients in Power Diary have a D.O.B entered before creating a Physitrack profile for them.
- If you need to update a client's details, i.e. their mobile number or email address, make sure you do this in their Power Diary profile. Physitrack will automatically update the details in their Physitrack profile the next time you connect to reflect the changes made in their Power Diary profile. This also means if you had manually updated client details in Physitrack, they would be automatically overridden the next time you connected from Power Diary.
