This will require action from your users and your dev team. We've been preparing for this and are here to help you through it.

Here's the timeline: - May 2026: The new Google Health API integration becomes available in your Inform marketplace. You'll need to request it be added on or after this date to get started. - May 19, 2026: Fitbit users must transition to a Google Account before this date, or they'll lose access to the Fitbit app and data syncing. For more information, see [maintenance PAGE](https://trust.validic.com/incidents/hp77lmtp130s). - September 2026: The legacy Fitbit Web API shuts down for good. All connections must be migrated by then, or data will stop syncing.

What this means for your users: - Every Fitbit user will need to reconnect through the new Google Health integration. Google requires each user to sign in with their Google Account and grant permissions.

What this means for your dev team: - Google Health is a new integration, available in May 2026 in your Inform marketplace. – If you are currently using the Validic v1 (legacy) API, please reach out to our support team for assistance: https://help.validic.com/portal/2 - Plan to update any logic referencing the "fitbit" source type to also handle "google_health". Your data still comes through as the same Validic standard objects. Some metric names have changed, and we'll have a mapping guide available soon. There is no downtime currently planned as part of this transition. Both integrations will run side by side from May through September 2026. And we have dedicated contacts at Google supporting this transition and will make sure any questions get to the right people.

We know transitions like this can feel like a lot, but this is exactly the kind of thing Validic is here for. We’re preparing additional information for you, which we plan to post next week. We will also continue to provide updated information as it is available through this maintenance page.
