Unable to create subscription for other collection-path except activities

[jimmyhoang]

I am making the request to creates a subscription to notify the application when a user has new data available. Followed by the docs here here but the response only pointed to activities collection-path. Do I miss anything? 

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/sleep/apiSubscriptions/dev001.json' \
--header 'X-Fitbit-Subscriber-Id: dev' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN'

Expected output:

{
    "collectionType": "sleep",
    "ownerId": "USERID",
    "ownerType": "user",
    "subscriberId": "dev",
    "subscriptionId": "dev001"
}

Actual output:

{
    "collectionType": "activities",
    "ownerId": "USERID",
    "ownerType": "user",
    "subscriberId": "dev",
    "subscriptionId": "dev001"
}

Hi @jimmyhoang 

When you try to create the subscription for sleep, what is the http status code returned along with the "activity" response?   And, did you create the subscription for activity using the subscriptionId "dev001"?

When you try to create the subscription for sleep, what is the http status code returned along with the "activity" response? 409

And, did you create the subscription for activity using the subscriptionId "dev001"? Yes, I did.

I made a call for activities using url:

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/activities/apiSubscriptions/dev001.json

 And then received the same response like above:

{
    "collectionType": "activities",
    "ownerId": "USERID",
    "ownerType": "user",
    "subscriberId": "dev",
    "subscriptionId": "dev001"
}

The docs indicates that 409 code means "Returned if the given user is already subscribed to this stream using a different subscription ID, OR if the given subscription ID is already used to identify a subscription to a different stream."

So I made a call to Get Subscription List:

https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/apiSubscriptions.json

Response:

{
    "apiSubscriptions": [
        {
            "collectionType": "activities",
            "ownerId": "USERID",
            "ownerType": "user",
            "subscriberId": "dev",
            "subscriptionId": "dev001"
        }
    ]
}

I hope this information is helpful for you to check.

I see the problem @Gordon-C 

I use dev001 to create activities subscription before. 

So I tried to use another subscription ID to create for sleep, eg USERID-sleep, and it worked!
