Android ActivityRecognition java.lang.NullPointerException: Appropriate Api was not requested

I'm attempting to follow Google's Activity Recognition example.

In the example they start the activity recognition when you click a button, however I'd like to just start it up when the app starts - so I tried putting it in the onConnected method. However, it ends up throwing a null pointer exception.

Here's how I'm calling it:

@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) {
    Log.d(TAG, "onConnected");
    try {
        ActivityRecognition.ActivityRecognitionApi.requestActivityUpdates(
                mGoogleApiClient,
                UPDATE_INTERVAL_IN_MILLISECONDS,
                getActivityDetectionPendingIntent()
        ).setResultCallback(this);

    } catch (SecurityException securityException) {
        logSecurityException(securityException);
    }
}

And the error:

Any ideas what I need to do differently to avoid this error? Other location services work just fine - like geofencing or requesting activity updates.
