3rd party integration with non-fitness data

I recognize that fitbit is mainly a fitness device. However, my interest in developing for the fitbit ecosystem extends beyond fitness data. 

 

For example, I have an account with Wunderlist, a simple to-do list based service. My goal is to grab that data and display that data on the fitbit (Versa). I'd also like to send a POST back to Wunderlist when I have completed a particular task.

 

I've had a difficult time finding information on how to do this. I essentially modified the existing oauth example on github: https://github.com/Fitbit/sdk-oauth

 

but, when I run the application I get an error on the fitbit companion application (using the simulator) that says unauthorized_client - Invalid client_id.

 

I've registered my application with Fitbit, so I'm not sure where to go.


Thanks,

It's much more than just a fitness device 🙂

 

Did you definitely enter your enter your details as per the readme?

  1. Enter your OAuth 2.0 Client ID and Client Secret into settings/index.jsx

I believe the code sample at https://github.com/Fitbit/sdk-oauth is not ment to be used for third party data like Wunderlist.
I think https://github.com/Fitbit/sdk-oauth is ment to be used for accessing Fitbit data only.

 

Have a look at https://github.com/Fitbit/sdk-bart which gets data from a third party like BART (https://api.bart.gov/docs/overview/index.aspx).
I have been playing a lot with the Bart sample code but so far I can get it to work only in the Fitbit OS Simulator.

 

I would be interested to know if somebody has it working on the Ionic device and what they did which I missed.

Any luck with getting your Wunderlist app to work?

 

I just switched from Pebble to Versa and I am seriously missing my Wunderlist app.

I haven't given up on the app, though I'm not done. After receiving some inquiry I took another look, and I was able to pull the data properly!

So, I'll take another crack at this and post an update hopefully soon.
