Heart Rate Subscription API

[Danielc99]

I would like to use the subscription API to get heart rate data. Is it likely that I would hit the API limit using the subscription api for heart rate data?

Does the subscriptions api work with heart rate?

You can use the 'activities' collection for heart rate data, as it comes from the tracker and would be available upon tracker sync.

You are not more likely to hit the API rate limit with heart rate than any other endpoint.

My requirement is to show the live heart rate of a user in my application.

As the api limit is 150 per hour, Is it possible ?

If I get heart rate between each minutes in a session,can that be similar to real time data?

Fitbit devices only sync every 15–20 minutes. Even if you requested data every minute, you wouldn't get real time data because the devices won't have synced.
