Unsure if Owntracks is recording correctly?

[delize]

I recently hooked up Owntracks & Dawarich as a replacement for Google Timeline (given that it is now on device only).

I can see in the log that at around 11 AM my time, it saw different WiFi and locations. However, when looking at the app itself, I don't see any "tracks" or tracing from the points I have been to the point I am now.

When looking at dawarich, I also don't see that data.

{
  "_type" : "configuration",
  "_id" : "d65c3f35",
  "waypoints" : [ ],
  "_build" : 420503003,
  "autostartOnBoot" : true,
  "cmd" : true,
  "connectionTimeoutSeconds" : 30,
  "debugLog" : true,
  "deviceId" : "komodo",
  "dontReuseHttpClient" : false,
  "enableMapRotation" : true,
  "encryptionKey" : "",
  "experimentalFeatures" : [ ],
  "extendedData" : true,
  "fusedRegionDetection" : true,
  "ignoreInaccurateLocations" : 0,
  "ignoreStaleLocations" : 0.0,
  "locatorDisplacement" : 50,
  "locatorInterval" : 60,
  "mapLayerStyle" : "GoogleMapDefault",
  "mode" : 3,
  "monitoring" : 1,
  "moveModeLocatorInterval" : 10,
  "notificationEvents" : true,
  "notificationGeocoderErrors" : true,
  "notificationHigherPriority" : false,
  "notificationLocation" : true,
  "opencageApiKey" : "",
  "osmTileScaleFactor" : 1.0,
  "password" : "",
  "pegLocatorFastestIntervalToInterval" : false,
  "ping" : 15,
  "publishLocationOnConnect" : false,
  "remoteConfiguration" : true,
  "reverseGeocodeProvider" : "Device",
  "showRegionsOnMap" : false,
  "theme" : 2,
  "tid" : "do",
  "url" : "https://tracking.my.domain/api/v1/owntracks/points?api_key=OMIT",
  "username" : ""
}

In this case, I walked roughly 300 to 400 meters, so the location change should have been accurate enough to update I think? And was at the specific place for ~2 hours so it should be enough time to say "I was here".

When setting this up, I followed this guide, and I believe it is configured successfully. But hard for me to tell if it is an issue on the app side or the server side. So wanted to reach out to see if I did something incorrectly on the app?

I have seen similar conversations around but, location permissions are already configured correctly.

Thanks!

You're going to have to ask dawarich probably, as we're not familiar with what they do.

Is there a way to verify historical tracking via the app for the past 24 hours at least? That way I can be sure it's working?

You can check the logs and verify that OT is posting locations to your endpoint.

And my assumption is that this is indicating that it was received or posted successfully?

The last two lines throw me for a loop.
