How to get hourly steps count in a specific date using Fitbit API

[RajaTamil]

I wanted to show 7day steps count in total. Then, I want to show the steps counts by hour (similar to Fitbit iOS App) in a given date. How do I do that?

I tried the end point below

1. GET https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/[resource-path]/date/[date]/1d/[detail-level]/time/[start-time]/[end...

@RajaTamil Here's examples of what you're looking for (taken from Fitbit Explorer😞

Last 7 days:

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/tracker/steps/date/2017-06-06/today.json

{
  "activities-tracker-steps": [
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-06",
      "value": "11911"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-07",
      "value": "9146"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-08",
      "value": "10026"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-09",
      "value": "14233"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-10",
      "value": "2804"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-11",
      "value": "1759"
    },
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-12",
      "value": "971"
    }
  ]
}

Step count for a single day in 15 min intervals:

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/steps/date/today/1d/15min.json

{
  "activities-steps": [
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-12",
      "value": "7731"
    }
  ],
  "activities-steps-intraday": {
    "dataset": [
      {
        "time": "00:00:00",
        "value": 0
      },
      {
        "time": "00:15:00",
        "value": 0
      },
      {
        "time": "00:30:00",
        "value": 0
      },
      {
        "time": "00:45:00",
        "value": 0
      },
      {
        "time": "01:00:00",
        "value": 0
      },
{. . .},
{
        "time": "17:15:00",
        "value": 0
      },
      {
        "time": "17:30:00",
        "value": 0
      }
    ],
    "datasetInterval": 15,
    "datasetType": "minute"
  }
}

The above endpoint does not return all the data like you mentioned.  "activities-steps-intraday" missing :(.

This is what I got back from that endpoint.

{
  "activities-steps": [
    {
      "dateTime": "2017-06-12",
      "value": "7731"
    }
  ]
 }

Thanks in advance.

@RajaTamil Your app needs to have access to Intraday Time Series data, which can be achieved from using a "personal" app type, or by submitting a request for access.
