An automated workflow using ifttt
Connects Fitbit + Salesforce
Fitbit to Salesforce
About this workflow template
This automation scenario allows you to connect Fitbit and Salesforce
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Fitbit and Salesforce can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
How it works?

This Trigger fires every time you log your weight in the Fitbit app or with the Aria scale.
