Hi,

I am new to Strava API development. I found examples of getting the segment leaderboard on the internet, but it's not in the API documentation and my code never returns anything so I am guessing those don't exist anymore. Any pointers?

I would like to know the top10 times for segments.

TIA!

Access to leaderboards was removed from the API some time ago. This was when the change was made to only allow subscribers to see segment leaderboards.

Thanks! I see that some apps figure out your position on the leaderboard. Is that from all segments efforts?

Which apps know the current position on the leaderboard?

The most obvious one is veloviewer. I wonder if Strava will block them since they must be scrapping Strava's web pages.

Some apps and devices have a special partnership with Strava, maybe veloviewer is one of them.
