Updating the steps

Hello there,

 

I'm working on an iOS app that syncs the health data tracked by the Apple Watch to Fitbit through the Fitbit Web API.

 

I've been through the whole documentation and the resources I found online and couldn't find answer to my problem.

 

looking at the following documentation (below), I'm able to login, retrieve and log data. the only issue is that I would like to update the steps. there is no endpoint that handles that.

Could you help?

 

Many thanks,

Med

Hi @213eek,

 

Welcome to the forums!

 

The Web API does not support writing step values. You can only log activities and write values for time, duration, intensity, distance, calories, and activity type. 

 

I hope this clarifies things. Let me know if you have any additional questions.
