    name: Google Fit

Google Fit credentials

In order to generate credentials.json, see the prerequisites for the Google Calendar component:
https://www.home-assistant.io/components/calendar.google/
To make sensor work you have to enable the Fitness API in your project. Add all Fitness API read scopes. After generating credentials, download credentials.json file
and place it into this directory, next to get_credentials.py
In oder to enable Fitness API open Google Cloud console:
https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/fitness.googleapis.com
and enable API.

To allow HA access your Fit data, you need to complete a challenge. It can’t be completed by HA so that’s why you need to use get_credentials.py script. First install all the
requirements using python -m pip install -r requirements.txt. Then run script python get_credentials.py, open
the generated URL, allow access and don’t forget to tick mark all permissions. This script will generate .google_fit.token file. Copy this file to your HA configuration directory.
