Hi,

I'm trying to automatically authenticate the fitbit user from my client app ( I have the fitbit user name and pwd in a secure location). Could someone help me with this?

Thanks,

Vipin

I can help by telling you it's not possible:)

 

To get other user's data you need this user to log in to fitbit and click "Allow" button confirming that he/she allows your app to see his data. There is no other way fitbit can expose user's data thgough the API.
