Hey!
I'm trying to build a personal website that displays my weekly mileage through Strava's API!
Unfortunately I keep getting the following error:
message: 'Authorization Error',
errors: [
{
resource: 'AccessToken',
field: 'activity:read_permission',
code: 'missing'
}
]I read a lot of forums online, videos, and the docs, I can't crack this problem and solve it.
I printed out token request & response in my terminal, here it is:
Token Request URL: https://www.strava.com/oauth/token?client_id=108355&client_secret=[KEEPING THIS PRIVATE] &refresh_token=[KEEPING THIS PRIVATE]&grant_type=refresh_token&response_type=code&approval_prompt=auto&scope=activity%3A+read_all
Token Response: {
token_type: 'Bearer',
access_token: '[KEEPING THIS PRIVATE]',
expires_at: 1707040367,
expires_in: 20581,
refresh_token: '[KEEPING THIS PRIVATE]'
}As you can see, the URL is set to the scope = activity: read_all.
I'm a little baffled on why I keep getting this problem.
Here's my JS code, perhaps it'll give some clues into the error:
export default async (req, res) => {
const headers = {
'Accept': 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};
const body = new URLSearchParams({
client_id: process.env.STRAVA_CLIENT_ID,
client_secret: process.env.STRAVA_SECRET,
refresh_token: process.env.STRAVA_REFRESH_TOKEN,
grant_type: 'refresh_token',
response_type: 'code',
approval_prompt: 'auto',
scope: 'activity: read_all',
});
console.log('Token Request URL:', `https://www.strava.com/oauth/token?${body.toString()}`);
const reauthorizeResponse = await fetch(`https://www.strava.com/oauth/token?${body.toString()}`, {
method: 'post',
headers: headers
});
// ... Rest of your code ...
const reAuthJson = await reauthorizeResponse.json();
console.log('Token Response:', reAuthJson); // Log token response for debugging
// Calculate the start and end timestamps for the past week in seconds
const endDate = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000); // current date in seconds
const startDate = endDate - (7 * 24 * 60 * 60); // 7 days ago in seconds
const apiUrl = `https://www.strava.com/api/v3/athlete/activities?access_token=${reAuthJson.access_token}&after=${startDate}&before=${endDate}`;
const response = await fetch(apiUrl);
const activities = await response.json();
// Ensure activities is an array (if it's an object, convert it to an array)
const activitiesArray = Array.isArray(activities) ? activities : [activities];
// Calculate total distance for the week
const weeklyMileage = activitiesArray.reduce((total, activity) => {
if (activity.type === 'Run' && activity.distance) {
total += activity.distance / 1000; // Convert meters to kilometers
} else {
// Log activity details for debugging
console.log('Skipped activity:', activity);
}
return total;
}, 0);
return res.status(200).json({
weeklyMileage
});
};I'd really value any guidance!
I've been trying to figure out a solution for the past 4 hours.
