Im trying to do a class project where I analyze users fitbit data and find a relationship between fitbit statistics and general health statistics for a city. This is my first time using an API and I cant figure out if I can get data that isn't my own. Is there a way to access this data? I'm using R, and any other advice would be appreciated!

In order to do so, you need to acquire the user's permission to use their personal data. You do this through usage of the OAuth2 protocol. Once you have a user's permission, you can start working with their data.
