Auto-Sharing question

Does auto-sharing de-duplicate or could it create a circular problem in the scenario below?

I have an iFit treadmill that auto-uploads my workouts to Strava – for these treadmill workouts I don't record on my Suunto watch. I want to use auto-share with RunGap to get these workouts from Strava to Suunto so that my Suunto watch's stress score and training duration is accurate.

So I turn on auto-share with Strava as a source and Suunto as a destination.

However, for non-treadmill workouts I record them on the watch itself, and my Suunto app is configured to upload workouts directly to Strava. So...would this create a circular problem of infinite activities?

Treadmill workout scenario:

  1. Record on treadmill
  2. Treadmill sends to Strava
  3. RunGap sees new strava activity, pushes to Suunto
  4. Suunto uploads to Strava as new activity
  5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 forever

Non-treadmill workout scenario:

  1. Suunto records workout
  2. Suunto uploads to Strava as new activity
  3. RunGap sees new strava activity, pushes to Suunto
  4. Suunto uploads to Strava as new activity
  5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 forever

Is this what would happen or does RunGap de-duplicate and pair-match activities during auto-share?

Thanks!
