Webapi sync weight data failed error(The caller does not have permission) code 403

[haoziy]

Hi everyone,

I'm encountering an issue while trying to sync weight data to Fitbit using the Web API. I receive a 403 Forbidden error with the message "The caller does not have permission", but I'm certain that I've completed the full authorization process.

Details:

• Error Code: 403
• Error Message: "The caller does not have permission"
• API Endpoint: POST /1/user/-/body/log/weight.json
• Authorization Scopes: I've requested and received all necessary permissions, including the weight scope.
• Token Validity: My access token is valid and has not expired.

Hi @haoziy 

Apologize for any inconvenience you're experiencing with this issue. I've reported this to our engineering team and will be sure to provide an update as soon as I receive one.

Workaround Solution: You'll need to append your user_Id directly to the URL. For example, please change the URL from: https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/-/body/log/weight.json to: https://api.fitbit.com/1/user/user_Id/body/log/weight.json
