How does Validic API capture and represent sleep values from the various integration partners?
...
For Fitbit, the "total_sleep" time (Legacy API) or “duration” (Inform API) is the "Actual sleep time" as opposed to the "You were in bed for" value shown in the Fitbit portal; however, Fitbit makes the other data values available which allows you to calculate a more precise sleep time. This is also the case for Jawbone, Withings and iHealth.
NOTE: Fitbit allows the user to choose different device settings for sleep. One is more sensitive than another to movement, so ostensibly awake values from Fitbit can vary by user settings as well.
