Read OvulationTestRecord in Kotlin

The shape of Google’s own read example, with OvulationTestRecord and its names filled in. Get the client with HealthConnectClient.getOrCreate(context) after checking getSdkStatus.

import androidx.health.connect.client.HealthConnectClient
import androidx.health.connect.client.records.OvulationTestRecord
import androidx.health.connect.client.request.ReadRecordsRequest
import androidx.health.connect.client.time.TimeRangeFilter
import java.time.Instant

suspend fun readOvulationTest(
    client: HealthConnectClient,
    startTime: Instant,
    endTime: Instant,
): List<OvulationTestRecord> {
    val response = client.readRecords(
        ReadRecordsRequest(
            OvulationTestRecord::class,
            timeRangeFilter = TimeRangeFilter.between(startTime, endTime),
        )
    )
    // One page of up to pageSize records (default 1000); follow
    // response.pageToken for the rest.
    return response.records
}

HealthKit counterpart

No verified HealthKit counterpart. The cross-platform matrix only pairs metrics checked against both Apple’s and Google’s documentation, and OvulationTestRecord is not among them yet. A similarly named Apple type may exist on the HealthKit reference, but a name match is not a verified mapping.

The metric on other platforms

This guide lists OvulationTestRecord beside the types on the other platforms this site covers whose own descriptions name the same metric, each quoted, with how each one is read.

Questions

What permission does OvulationTestRecord need?

Google's Health Connect data-types table (read 2026-10-03) declares android.permission.health.READ_OVULATION_TEST for reading OvulationTestRecord and android.permission.health.WRITE_OVULATION_TEST for writing it, and says apps must declare permissions in the manifest before requesting them.

Can you aggregate OvulationTestRecord with AggregateRequest?

Not directly. As read on 2026-10-03, Google's Jetpack reference defines no AggregateMetric constants on OvulationTestRecord, so there is no metric to put in an AggregateRequest. Read the records with readRecords and a ReadRecordsRequest, and compute any summary yourself.

Which constants does OvulationTestRecord define?

Google's reference lists 4 constants on OvulationTestRecord, including RESULT_HIGH = 2, RESULT_INCONCLUSIVE = 0, RESULT_NEGATIVE = 3 and RESULT_POSITIVE = 1. Store the constant name or the value it maps to, and treat values you do not recognise as unknown.

Is OvulationTestRecord an interval, instantaneous or series record?

Google's data-types table lists OvulationTestRecord as Instantaneous, and defines that column as indicating "whether the data is recorded at an instant in time or over an interval". Its mandatory fields are metadata, result and time.
