Show daily steps of friends in Fitbit watch app

Hi everyone!

 

I'm building my first Fitbit app and I need some help. I used the example of the app displayed different icons depending on the time slept (link) to start my project. The goal is to display current steps of me and my parents who also have Fitbit watches. On the screen, I want to display :

Me : myNumberOfSteps

Friend1: numberOfStepsFriend1

Friend2: numberOfStepsFriend2

 

My parents installed the app on their watches (I sent them the private download link), but I do not succeed to display current daily steps of another person than the user of the watch : so I can only display "myNumberOfSteps" and I achieved to display friends name but that's it. Is this even possible and if it is, could I have some advices to achieve this please? 🙂

 

The settings I used were the following : 

  • OAuth 2.0 Application Type : Server
  • Default Access Type : Read-Only
  • In package.json I ask for : Activity, Internet and Run in Background
  • In settings of my app I set : scope="social activity"

Thanks a lot !
