HeartRate Time Series Web API

[vaikzs18]

Hello there,

Can someone answer me? I see that the heartrate time series api has two types of ways to request :

1. GET https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/[user-id]/activities/heart/date/[date]/[period].json

2. GET https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/[user-id]/activities/heart/date/[base-date]/[end-date].json

In both the ways when I request for my past data ( anything other than the current day ) I don't seem to get the HeartRateZones with minutes.

Example Response :

 "heartRateZones": [
                    {   "max": 94,
                        "min": 30,
                        "name": "Out of Range"
                    }
....
]

 When I request for the current day (today or with exact date) I get the zones with minutes. Am I missing somethinhg? Do I need to make any Application level changes (manage apps) ? Please suggest some solution for this !

This seems to be working for me. I tried:
https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/heart/date/today1d.json

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/heart/date/2015-10-16/1d.json (a month ago)

Do you have heart rate data from a device on the days in the past?

Yes I do. I am sure of whats wrong

Capture your API request (with a tool like Runscope) and share it with us. Be sure to redact your access token before posting.

I think that the heart rate intraseries is inherently broken anyway. I've used it in a web application and some of the data was truly baffling, such as a mid-50s male having a heart rate over 190 constantly, every day at the same time. We can't use the exertion details because of that, so we just use average resting heart rate.

That does sound unusual, but the time series is not inherently broken. Perhaps that user has a bad device.
