How to use API

[hs02955]

Hi,

I am trying to build an which can help people suffering from Diabetes.

For our application to work we need the data from your application and we need to integrate it with our system and analysis the results.

Can someone please guide me how can we do it.

Thanks,

Hitesh

I've shifted this to the dedicated web API forum where you'll probably have better luck getting an answer than in a generic tracker forum.

Good luck!

What kind of platform are you aiming at? What coding language...lots of uknowns for who can help you here...

All starts with

# You'll have to gather the tokens on your own, or use
# ./gather_keys_oauth2.py
authd_client = fitbit.Fitbit('<consumer_key>', '<consumer_secret>', oauth2=True,
                             access_token='<access_token>', refresh_token='<refresh_token>')
authd_client.sleep()

Dear administrator. where I can find the Access_token and refresh token? 

[elderofozone]

chw33,

You can get the access tokens and refresh tokens using the script ./gather_keys_oauth2.py within the python-fitbit folder.

You can get access to the python library using this link.

[chw333]

I download it and implement it on the linux server. but the problem is I can not find 

access_token

refresh_token

[elderofozone]

run this python script for those keys

[chw333]

How do I do it?

Have a great day and Thanks and Best wishes

 Firstly you need to change your redirect URL to http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Next The script needs to be run the script with the following parameters.

./gather_keys_oauth2.py <OAuth 2.0 Client ID> <Client Secret>

Substituting the client ID and client secret for your values.

[chw333]

Firstly you need to change your redirect URL to http://127.0.0.1:8080/

you mean call back URL?

Have a great day and Thanks

[elderofozone]

That's correct.

how do I do authorization header?

[AndrewFitbit]

Hi @chw333, I'd suggest reviewing the documentation on the authorization process if you haven't already. You can find it here. 

[jung123]

Hi @elderofozone , I am trying to get the access token and refresh token and ran 

python-fitbit/gather_keys_oauth2.py <OAuth 2.0 Client ID> <Client Secret>

But I am also getting the same error mentioned in @chw333's question as below

ChannelFailures: IOError("Port 8080 not free on '127.0.0.1'",)

I have checked the redirect URL(call back url) and it is set as http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Could you help me with this problem?

Thank you!

[elderofozone]

Woah, this is a blast from the past.



Sorry I do not remember jung123 post nor the specific error. Seems as though
you already have something running on port 8080. Try 8081?
