Timestamps for manual data entries?

Does the Fitbit API provide the date and time when a user logs calories? Is this information available in the activity data? In the nutrition data? Are the dates/times dependable?

 

I see that caloric intake is attached to a day -- the day the user assigned the calories to. However, we are wondering if there is a timestamp that shows when the data was actually entered by the user.

I see the following in the food log:

 

            "logDate":"2011-06-29",

 

But because the timestamp is simply a date, I suspect that entries in a food log are tied to that date. I don't see anything in the sample output that would tie a date and time timestamp to each food item entered in the log.

 

Or, does the intraday API have such information?

Can someone from Fitbit reply?

@martinstreicher It will only have the date, not the time. Intraday won't give you a time for when food was entered.
