How to use Nokia (Withings scale/ Healthmate) with Fitbit?

[Jofeljoh]

I would like to sync my weight/bmi/fat% to my fitbit account/dashboard. Maybe the other way around also the steps from fitbit into the nokia health mate app.

anyone any idea where to start? All the links in other topics and the help pages lead to 404 pages, for example: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1286/?l=en_US&c=Topics%3AX3rd_Party_Integration&...

any help is greatly appreciated!

cheers,

tom

To transfer the data to another supplier, an integration is required. Can be developed by one of the two suppliers or by an external. I developed this web integration to help, work automatically and in real-time. Best Regards.

I applaud your initiative Mark81 - I just wish the programmers at FitBit were as ambitious as you.

So the Nokia Scales do not work without the external app.

So based on this webshop , the aria 2 is the cheapest option if you want BMI and extra information?

We got our a body + scale today. I was SOOO happy to see it works with fitbit according to the product description but I also encountered the same issue with the withings connection wizard:

• Cannot link Withings profile at this time. Withings server returned the following error: Unknown status code.

One of the product's selling point is that it works with multiple app's. I'm very disappointed to see so many complaints of the same issue and noone really seem to pick this up constructively from the production side. I hope for the best!

Also, can someone unmark this thread as an issue unsolved?

I would like to confirm that i'm running into the same error message, i.e. 

Please fix the following errors:

• Cannot link Withings profile at this time. Withings server returned the following error: Unknown status code.

I can log into my Withings account to see the dash board there without any problems.

I would urge the Fitbit development team to really engage on the issue. If Mark81 as a one man development team was able to implement the new authentication protocol i get the impression that the problem with implementing a fix on the Fitbit-side is likely due to non interest in supporting a competing harware product on your platform than due to an actual technical issue.

PS: I also think that the thread should be flagged as not solved.

So your devs have other priorities and you are buying them time with copy pasting marketing approved feel good text blocks about being totally interested while doing nothing.

It is an API. It is documented. Get going.  It is easy.

Edit: Nevermind, I entered my Fitbit password instead of Withings by mistake.  It is indeed working for me again.

I tried this morning at around 8am eat wasn't able to connect, just tried again 12pm and was able to connect.
