Looking for how to start - Adding more data to the fitbit database

‎05-13-2018 14:10

I am looking for a good tutorial on how to start adding more data to the fitbit database (and potentially have it show up in a dashboard)

 

The idea is to track habits, using the watch to note a completed item (or a good/bad choice) and store this information on the user so it can be shown in the dashboard

You won't be able to have a new tile in the dashboard. There are some Web APIs which you can write to, but they aren't really for custom data. https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/web-api/activity/#activity-logging

 

Alternatively, you could just build an app using the SDK and display the data on the device itself, or your own website/mobile app.
