Are there any differences between the US and Netherlands version of the Sense?
From a product feature standpoint as well as from a Web API standpoint?
I'm based in the US but I'd like to build an Authorization Code Grant flow with the web API and am wondering if I need to develop this on the Netherlands version of the Sense because that's where it will be used.

As for the Sense, they all have the same hardware.
As for the API I assume it is the same for all. However since your are asking about the Fitbit API and not a hardware question on the Sense, I've moved your post to the API support board.

Thank you @Rich_Laue for assisting.
@DN_1 The Web APIs pull the data from our servers after the device syncs with the mobile application. Therefore, the Web APIs become device agnostic. Are you trying to pull the data after the user syncs or directly off the device itself for real-time access?

Thanks @Rich_Laue and @Gordon-C for the quick response.
I'm looking to pull data after the user syncs. Since I'll be using it in the Netherlands, to be extra safe, I'll buy that version and then develop in the US. Are there any problems with that?

Hi @DN_1
If you're looking to pull the data after the user syncs, then you'll use the Web APIs. The Web APIs are not country or region specific. You should be able to build your application in the Netherlands. You can adjust the localization settings if you want. Here's the information in the documentation to do it: https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/web-api/basics/#localization
