Fitbit Water Data Retrieval Schedule

This article pertains to: Legacy API (V1)

When should I expect water data entered in the Fitbit portal to be available from the Validic API?

Water data entered in the Fitbit portal for the current day will be available when the next update to the user's routine data is retrieved. Though this is not real time data, there will be many updates throughout the day.

For water data entered for previous days up to a week old, water data will be retrieved from Fitbit and made available via the Validic API within 8 hours. Any water data entered for over a week in the past, will not be retrieved.

At the time of first sync, water data for 6 months will be retrieved from Fitbit and made available via the Validic API.
