I have REST API that GETS sleep and activity data from Fitbit and stores it in an excel file. I have a question, If there are multiple Fitbit devices connected to a single account. How can I differentiate, that which sleep data belongs to which device?
Example:
My wife and I use Fitbit devices. We have logged in with the same account. Now I have the same clientID and clientSecret. I am getting the sleep and activity data simultaneously but is there any special device or unique ID that can tell me if the sleep/activity data is from my Fitbit or my wife's ?

I think you should probably use separate account for each person. As I understand it, having multiple watches on one account is useful for when one person swaps watches during the day. Fitbit adds together the calories, steps, etc, for each watch. As a result, after syncing, a watch can display the correct totals for that person regardless of Which Watch Was Worn When.
If you have more than one person on one account, you'll probably end up with a confusing combination of data.
