To get a user key to integrate the API we need to register with the website. After retrieving the keys they can be added in a code and to make the API calls. But we need the app to be able to register the user by itself and make these API features an integral part of the game. Is there a easy way to do this?
Is there anyone who has done this or if anyone can help me on this?
I would appreciate any kind of help.
Hi Sid - I work for BodyMedia, and while I can’t speak directly for AchieveMint, using our API (either through AcheiveMint or directly in your own app) requires the user have a BodyMedia account and authenticate with their BodyMedia ID and PW. The reason for this is that there is an actual physical hardware device they wear to generate the biometric data, so it needs to be tied to a real person (as we do take into account their characteristics like height and weight into our algorithms).
We do have an API for registering new users if you are planning on selling armbands directly, but there is a significant charge involved and it’s really only meant for large volume commercial partners.
If you have any questions on anything here or I can clarify further, feel free to email me directly at apisupport@bodymedia.com.
