Error "insufficient_permissions" in getting activity data

[workoutwith]

Hi,

I am calling this url to get steps count.

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/steps/date/today/1d/1min/time/14:43/16:43.json

But it returns
{"errors":[{"errorType":"insufficient_permissions","message":"API client is not authorized by Fitbit to access the resource requested. Visit https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/oauth2 for more information on the Fitbit Web API authorization process."}],"success":false}

I obtain my access_token before calling this service.

Please help.

Hey @workoutwith, the error you're getting means you don't have access to Intraday Time Series. For more info on how to get minute and second level data, I'd suggest checking out this thread here.

Hope that helps.
