409 Conflict Error

[cch]

When trying to add a subscription we are performing a POST /1/user/-/activities/apiSubscriptions/573-activities.xml HTTP/1.1

The response we get back is a HTTP 409-conflict.  The error message indicates that we can’t add a listener for user 573 because we already have one for user 532. The contents of the response look like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><result><collectionType>activities</collectionType><ownerId>2GQL33</ownerId><ownerType>user</ownerType><subscriberId>1</subscriberId><subscriptionId>532-activities</subscriptionId></result>

Why does it matter that we have an activity subscription for 532 (called 532-activities) when we are now trying to add 573-activities?  We want to use 1 subscriber URL for all of our user subscriptions and that URL is already registered with our "fitbit application".  What are we missing or doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance!

Hello.

Are you sure you using access token for user 573?

Try execute http://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/profile.json request and check if it returns to you the user that correspond to 573. The encoded id should NOT be equal to 2GQL33, since 2GQL33 correcponds to 532 according to your message.
