sensor:
  - platform: google_fit
    name: Google Fit
    client_id: your_client_id
    client_secret: your_client_secret

Client ID and Client Secret

In order to generate your client_id and client_secret, see the prerequisites for the Google Calendar component: https://www.home-assistant.io/components/calendar.google/#prerequisites To make sensor work you have to enable the Fitness API in your project. In oder to enable Fitness API open Google Cloud console: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/fitness.googleapis.com and enable API.

It is recommendable to store the client_id and client_secret as securely as possible. You can read about it on: https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/secrets/

Example:

  - platform: google_fit
    name: Bob
    client_id: !secret google_fit_client_id
    client_secret: !secret google_fit_client_secret

FAQ

If you have issues authenticating or setup try this workaround first:

Set your HA timezone to (GMT+00:00) GMT (no daylight saving) then restart HA. You'll get a notification to Authenticate. Once the Auth with Google is complete, you can change your timezone back and restart.
