we're looking to deploy a code change that will require some minor downtime and was wondering if we disabled the subscription endpoint, will fitbit just toss that data away or will they hold onto it and push it once it's enabled again?
we're trying to avoid our queue getting overrun by being off for a short while, and another health provider we use offers a way to pause the push trigger on their end for things like that.

Hi @sparkwatson
Thank you for sharing your question.
When a subscriber is disabled, we stop attempting to send notifications. To ensure no data is missed, once you re-enable the subscriber, you should perform a query covering the period from when it was disabled to the current time.
Hope it helps!
