About this workflow template
This automation scenario allows you to connect Fitbit and Gmail
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.

Apps you need
Fitbit produces activity trackers, smart watches, wearable devices that measure number of steps walked, heart rate, quality of sleep, steps climbed, and other fitness & health metrics. The Fitbit mobile app is for people who use Fitbit devices to keep track of their activity goals, food plans, and other fitness related things.
IFTTT helps to create applications connections with a simple statement: if this then that. For example: "Tweet your Instagrams as native photos on Twitter". You define a task by a trigger and an action.
