Lowest Distance record

Hey, 

 

I'm trying to figure out if for example, a user selects Metric as their distance unit, will their distance always be recorded in KM for example and Miles for the others. 

 

Just trying to make sure I won't be getting meters till 1 km for example. 

 

Thanks.

I always thought Fitbits distance was saved in KM ?

 

Quite intrigued to know.

Most endpoints allow the caller of the API to specify which unit system they would like it to return data in.

I see. If nothing is declared it returns KM.

 

Gotcha!
