      I’m having an issue where the fitbit module loads up fine, however none of the data fields are populated.
      What I’ve tried:

      • Set all privacy settings in my fitbit profile to “anyone”
      • Confirmed login ID and secret is correct in config.js

      Possibly related:

      • When I start “sudo python setupAccess.py” it hangs indefinitely at ENGINE Bus STARTED. I’m not sure if this is normal.

      • Do I need to start MagicMirror with “sudo npm start”? I’ve been using “pm2 start mm”. When I use “sudo npm start” from the MagicMirror directory I get the following:

        Update: I figured out my issue was related to SSH. I’ve been setting up the MagicMirror entirely through SSH. When starting “sudo python setupAccess.py” it was hanging indefinitely at “ENGINE Bus STARTED.” I tried this same thing without SSH and it booted up the fitbit webpage to log in and grant access.

        I’m having another issue now where after granted access I’m getting:

        ERROR: Missing access token parameter.
        Please check that you are using the correct client_secret

        You can close this window

        File “setupAccess.py”, line 53, in index
        self.oauth.fetch_access_token(code, self.redirect_uri)

          Final update: I had a single capital letter in my client secret that was causing this issue. I swapped it to lower case and the module is finally working!

              @darrene Funny, but I had to change the config to remove the square brackets and replace them with curly brackets around the config parameters to get the config.js file to be accepted:

              {
                  module: 'MMM-fitbit',
                  position: 'top_center',
                  **config: {**
                      credentials: {
                          client_id: <client_id>,
                          client_secret: <client_secret>,
                      },
                      resources: [
                          'steps',
                          'floors',
                          'caloriesOut',
                          'distance',
                          'activeMinutes',
                          'sleep',
                          'heart'
                      ],
                      update_interval: 60
                  **}**
              },
