Fitbit Rate Limits
Reconciled rate limits for the Fitbit Web API. Quotas are per OAuth grant (per authorized user per app) and reset on a rolling hourly window. Intraday access is granted on a case-by-case basis and counts against the same hourly bucket. When a quota is exceeded the API returns HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header.
Fitbit Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Fitbit on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.
It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, across the Authorized (per user, per app) and Unauthorized (server-to-server, no user grant) tiers.
Limit state is signalled in the limit, remaining, reset, and retryAfter response headers, and an exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.
This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.
The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled and quotaExceeded.
Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Quotas, Wearable, and Fitbit.
