What It Does

Intakes History provides access to a user's logged meals (intakes) over time and their nutritional roll‑ups. You can fetch the list of intakes between two datetimes (including per‑intake nutrients and ingredients), get daily/weekly summaries, and compute total intake by day to drive progress UIs. Food intakes include image-based food recognition requests, manual inputs, intakes based on barcode scans, personal favorites or custom recipes. See the complete list of ways to insert food intakes.

When to Use It / Outcomes

• You’re building a food diary.
• You want daily or weekly dashboards showing totals and trends.
• You need to check if a user has any intake on a given day (for reminders/streaks).
• Output: JSON containing intake entries with nutrients and ingredients; or summaries/totals for the requested period.

Feature-Specific Details

• Date/Time filters: Use date_from and date_to (format "%Y/%m/%d, %H:%M:%S") to list intakes in a period.
• Daily/Weekly summaries: Provide aggregated nutrient values for a specific date ("%Y/%m/%d") or week starting from a given date.
• Totals by day: Compute the sum of nutrients consumed from images uploaded on a date (24‑hour span).
• Language: Localize dish and ingredient labels with the language parameter (e.g., eng, spa, ita, etc.). If no language is provided, the user-specific language will be used.
• User scope: For 🔵 APIUserManager and ⚫ APICompany, pass user_id to query a specific user; for 🔴 APIUser, it defaults to the token’s user.
• Timezone: History endpoints apply the platform’s date boundaries; align UI with the user’s timezone for consistent “today/this week” views.

Related Endpoints

Use the following endpoints to retrieve intakes history and summaries:

• GET /history/getIntakesList → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 List all intakes with nutrients & ingredients between date_from and date_to.
• GET /intake → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Retrieve all info for a specific intake including nutrients, ingredients, etc.
• GET /history/getDailySummary → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Daily summary for a given date ("%Y/%m/%d").
• GET /history/getWeeklySummary → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Weekly summary starting at date ("%Y/%m/%d").
• GET /history/getTotalIntakeByDay → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Totals for today (24h window).
• GET /history/getTotalIntakeByDay/{date} → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Totals for a specific date (YYYY-MM-DD).
• GET /history/hasIntake → ⚫ 🔴 🔵 Check presence/number of intakes on a date or date range.

Typical Workflow

1. Choose the view: list (date range), summary (day/week), or total (by day).
2. Call the endpoint with the appropriate parameters (date_from/date_to, date, user_id, language).
3. Parse response: render intake cards or aggregated totals in charts.
4. Store & analyze: persist results to power streaks, reminders, and trend analytics.
