Weight API, source parameter

Hi, I am using the weight API to get the weight from the user.

 

What is the difference between the source parameter in the response? From "API" to "Aria"?

Does "API" means that the weight was manually entered instead of taken using the Aria scale?

 

    "fat":[
        {
            "date":"2012-03-05",
            "fat":14,
            "logId":1330991999000,
            "time":"23:59:59",
            "source": "API"
        },
        {
            "date":"2012-03-05",
            "fat":13.5,
            "logId":1330991999000,
            "time":"21:20:59",
            "source":"Aria"
        }

 

Thank you

I have also seen "Web" as source, meaning that is was entered via the web application.

API --> logged through the Fitbit Web API; manual

Web --> logged through the Fitbit dashboard; manual

Aria --> measurement from the Aria scale.

Are those the only three possible values that "source" has?

@pratoa For weight logs, yes. Those should be the only 3 values for "source".
