FitBit Data to Google Spreasheet

I received a FitBit for Christmas and while the website provides access to a lot of data a graphs, I wanted a way to access the data in a format to process with R (statistics).

I found the following blog post which points to the use of a Google script that accesses the data via the developer API and populates a Google spreadsheet.

It was pretty straight forward since I've worked a bit with Google scripts before.

It provides daily summary data across a dozen or so categories. What would be nice is more granular data.
