When retieving data via the API for a FitBit Zip device does anyone know what would be the smallest time unit available for recorded steps? For example, would data be available for number of steps in each minute, or would it be limited to a larger time period (e.g. every 15 minutes)?
Thank You

Thank You
The most granular time unit for steps is each minute. You can retrieve minute level data with the new OAuth 2.0 personal app type: https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/basics/#personal
If you are not trying to get data for yourself only, please see: https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/activity/#get-activity-intraday-time-series
