As part of the Measurement resource, Fitbit currently supports body weight (body_weight) data.
There are some special considerations to be aware of when working with Fitbit body weight data:
Body weight values that are manually entered are limited to one decimal place. i.e. 182.4.
Values entered via the Fitbit mobile app will stop you from entering values beyond one decimal place.
Values entered via the Fitbit web portal will allow you to enter more than one decimal place, but they will then round it to one decimal place.
Values that are entered as pounds will be displayed as kilograms in the Validic Inform API
Fitbit makes this conversion on their end and provides Validic with the kilogram values up to one decimal place. Validic does not do this pounds-to-kilogram conversion
Manually entered body weight values created in the Fitbit mobile app will appear in the Inform API
Manually entered body Weight values created in the Fitbit web portal will NOT appear in the Inform API as they are not included in the Fitbit API.
