Always forgetting to stay hydrated? Wish you could track your water intake along with all your other Fitbit data on Home Assistant? Well, we've got you covered with our "Fitbit Water Tracker" AppDaemon script!
-
This nifty little script fetches and logs your daily water consumption data from your Fitbit account using the Fitbit API.
-
You can now keep an eye on your hydration levels right from your Home Assistant dashboard. It's like having a personal water butler reminding you to drink more water!
-
It's a bit puzzling why Fitbit and Home Assistant don't already track water consumption together. But don't worry, we've filled this thirst gap in the smart home world with our app!
-
Sure, you know how many steps you've taken and your sleep patterns, but now you can complete the picture with how much H2O you're guzzling. Hydration heroes unite!
-
The app automatically fetches your daily water log from the Fitbit API every 30 minutes. Stay up-to-date on your hydration game without lifting a finger!
-
Feeling extra thirsty? No worries! You can manually trigger the script by toggling the "input_boolean.trigger_script" entity. Your water data is just a click away!
To use the "Fitbit Water Tracker" app, you'll need to set the following Fitbit API credentials in your Home Assistant:
-
access_token
: Your Fitbit API access token. Don't have it? Follow the Fitbit API OAuth2 Tutorial to get one. -
refresh_token
: Your Fitbit API refresh token. Obtain it during the OAuth2 setup following the tutorial above. -
client_id
: Your Fitbit API client ID. You'll need to create an app and get this from your Fitbit developer account. -
client_secret

user_id

Note: Just a little secret between us – make sure to keep your credentials secure and don't share them with anyone! Also, when declaring the script in apps.yaml
, don't forget to add client_id
and client_secret
along with other parameters.
Here's an example of how to declare the script in apps.yaml
:
fitbit_water_tracker:
