Hello!

i want to get my heart rate data from charge 5 and send it to my web server.

Is there a way to retrieve real-time heart rate data using Charge 5 and send it to a web server?

It's possible (but difficult) to do that using some Fitbits, but not Charge 5. The Web API isn't real-time; the SDK is needed.

It can be done using superseded Versa and Sense models. An SDK for the current models hasn't been released.

Thank you @Gondwana .

Hi @zansis ... As @Gondwana mentioned, the Web APIs do not display the data in real-time.  The data is only available after the user syncs.   Unlike the Device SDK, the Web API supports all devices including the charge 5.   The heart rate data can be returned in multiple detail levels from 1sec to 15min.   See https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/web-api/intraday/get-heartrate-intraday-by-date/
