How to retrieve "Active minutes" like in Fitbit app ?

Hi all,

 

How do I retrieve "Active minutes", just as we can see them in the Fitbit app ?

 

I already have access to Intraday data, but I am not sure how to get this and have examined alot of different calls using the API explorer.

 

Any hints are much appreciated 😉

Have you looked at the API-Get-Activities call? It looks to report minutes:

  • sedentaryMinutes
  • lightlyActiveMinutes
  • fairlyActiveMinutes
  • veryActiveMinutes

I think "Active Minutes" is the combination or fairly and very active minutes.

Hi Michael,

 

Thats exactly what I needed - think I had been focusing too much on the TimeData API.

 

Do you know if its possible to get them like IntraDay data, so I can see in fx. which 15 minute intervals they have been active, like in the Fitbit app ?

 

And thanks again 🙂
