Hi! I wanted to develop an app on Fitbit Versa that runs some algorithms on real-time heart rate and accelerometer data. Are there any APIs to access real-time heart rate and accelerometer data on Fitbit OS? Thanks

Yes, you can read about them in the sensor guides.

There's also the Scientific API https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/device-api/scientific/ and the Scientific Signal API https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/device-api/signal/
