Alarm Now

[CuriousGuy]

Hello,

I know that using the API you can add an alarm, but I want the alarm to be activated imediatly. Is this possible? My team and I are currently developing another product that we beleive this would "fit" well using this feature as an extension of our device... We would love the opertunity to describe our usage privatly. 

Thanks,

J

Since you cannot control when the next sync is how would that help you?

Couldnt you just set the alarm to [Current time] + 1 minute to achieve what you like to do (If you ignore the sync delay)?

There is no way to activate alarm imediatelly. 

With Fitbit API you're able to update the device alarms state on Fitbit servers. The device will get the update next time it synces. Normally device automatically synces every 15-20 minutes. However, if there is no bluetooth dongle or mobile deviec that tracker can sync through then sync delay may be even longer.
