Get blood pressure for a date range per 1 request

ANSWERED

Hello, Fitbit developers.

 

I confused with fitbit API: is there any way to get a blood pressure (and heart rate) for a few month (any date range)?

I've got https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/API/API-Get-Blood-Pressure and https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/API/API-Get-Time-Series. But there is no any workarounds.

I have a task: synchronize our web-site with fitbit user's data (weight, BP and Heart rate). The weight is OK.

How about BP and Heart rate? Will fitbit Improve it API in the future?

 

Any help appreciated! Thanks! Smiley Wink

Correct. The endpoints are being removed on the 27th. They likely will still be accessible for a short period of time, but you should discontinue use by the 27th.

Good day, Fitbit team!Man Happy

 

We still want to get blood pressure (heart rate, weight (now can be requested for 31 day only)) from your API.

 

Could you remove rate limitation (https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/API/Rate+Limit) for particular application?

There is no way to get blood pressure for a date range. Requesting blood pressure from Fitbit day by day is slow as hell. We want to get blood pressure for a long time. Is subscriptions API the only solution?

 

Now BP API is deprecated: https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/API/API-Get-Blood-Pressure

Are you intend to expand blood pressure API to get BP for a date range?

Depends on the use case. Please email api@fitbit.com and we can discuss.

Blood pressure is not in the Subscriptions API.

No. Deprecated for us means that we are no longer working on a feature and that it may be removed in the future.

Thank you, Jeremiah! And sorry for my English.

Support team from api@fitbit.com doesn't bring any useful information, so let's discuss it here.

We want keep Fitbit blood pressure measurements in actual state in our database.

Is https://wiki.fitbit.com/display/API/API-Get-Blood-Pressure the only way to get blood pressure measurements for 1,2,3... months/years?

Yes and this is not going to be improved, as this feature is deprecated.

Sorry, guys!

We received email from api@fitbit.com:

. The custom logging endpoints (deprecated in October 2014) will be removed on August 27, 2015.
•	API-Get-Heart-Rate (e.g. GET /1/user/-/heart/date/2010-02-21.json, replaced with heart rate time series)
•	API-Log-Heart-Rate (e.g. POST /1/user/-/heart.json)
•	API-Delete-Heart-Rate-Log (e.g. DELETE /1/user/-/heart/123.json)
•	!!!API-Get-Blood-Pressure (e.g. GET /1/user/-/bp/date/2010-02-21.json)!!!

And my teamlead can't believe that we couldn't get Blood pressure from fitbit anymore! Man LOL

I think he just likes fitbit products! Man Wink

Please, confirm here again (because api@fitbit.com don't answer on our emails):

Is there no any way to get blood pressure from Fitbit API after 08/27/2015? And will not?
