Real time Data Export ALTA HR

Is it possible to export real-time accelerometer data from an ALTA HR Fitbit to my PC in order to develop an application?

Please I need help.

No. You'd need to use the Device API, and the Device API can only be used with particular Fitbit OS watches.

Yes (as long as you don't mean Versa 4). But it's very difficult to do. Before spending any money, do some reading in the SDK forum to satisfy yourself that you'll be able to achieve it.

Thank you, @Gondwana 

Hi @artur197 

The Alta HR data can only be returned using the Fitbit Web API which does not include accelerometer data.  The accelerometer data is only available with the Fitbit smartwatches (Versa family and Sense family devices).  You can use the Device SDK to pull the data, as Gondwana explained.
