How to get 1 year data of sleep and activities

‎08-27-2015 23:53

Hi,

 

I am trying to call the API time sries to get the old data, but after 5 mins or inserting 20 records it throws 505 error(Too Many hits) and I need to wait another 10 to 15 mins inorder to run the service again. It stops again after inserting like 15 to 20 records. Is there any better way to get the data?

 

Appreciate your help.

The Fitbit API shouldn't respond with a HTTP 505 error. The rate limit error is HTTP 429.

 

You say that you're trying to get a year of sleep and activity data, but also that you're inserting. What exactly is the request that you're making and what is the exact response? Raw HTTP request logging is the best way for us to help you.
