description: >-
  Empatica publishes NO first-party client library on any public package
  registry today. npm, PyPI, Maven Central and the Empatica GitHub organization
  were all searched. Every package that carries the Empatica name is
  community-maintained, targets the discontinued E4 wristband, and has not been
  released in years. The first-party E4 SDKs (E4link for Android, EmpaLink for
  iOS) were distributed from developer.empatica.com, which was retired with the
  E4 on 2025-02-14 and now serves only a redirect to the sunset notice — so the
  official SDK surface did not move to a registry, it disappeared.

  note: >-
    Maintained by the RADAR-base open-source research platform, not by Empatica.
    Latest version read from the Maven Central search index; the release date could
    not be read because search.maven.org timed out on the gav query during this pass.
current_integration_path:
  description: >-
    With no first-party SDK, the supported integration path is generic tooling against
    generic protocols: any AWS S3 client for data retrieval, and any Avro reader for
    parsing.
  recommended_by_provider:
  - {name: Cyberduck, kind: file-transfer client, note: Empatica's recommended choice;
      free and open source, Windows and macOS.}
  - {name: AWS CLI v2, kind: cli, note: Third-party (Amazon), not an Empatica CLI.}
  - {name: AWS SDKs, kind: sdk, note: Python, Java, JavaScript and others; third-party
      (Amazon).}
  - {name: Apache Avro APIs, kind: parser, languages: [Python, Java, C, 'C#', C++, MATLAB]}

gaps:
- No official client library for the Cloud API in any language.
- The newest package bearing the Empatica name shipped in 2022, and all of them target
  hardware Empatica discontinued in February 2025.
- No SDKs pointer is emitted in apis.yml, because official_package_count is 0.
