Dear Forum,
I am developing a server application that will have hundreds of users in the future.
My situation:
Since I am working with intraday time series data, I will have to make about 7 requests per page refresh.
My question is the following:
What is the API request rate limit about? Is it the limit for the application, the limit for requests per fitbit user or is the limit per used API?
Best regards,
Christian

Hi @Chris_tian, welcome to the Web API Forum! The Fitbit Web API rate limit are a per user, per hour limit. This is documented on the reference documentation.

Hi DavidSFitbit!
Thank you. It seems I have always overlooked that one page. (;¬д¬)
