I'm currently working with the Strava API and using the GET /athlete endpoint to retrieve authenticated athlete data. However, I noticed that the response does not include the athlete's date of birth, even when requesting all available scopes (such as profile:read_all).
My question is:
-
Is there currently any way to retrieve the athlete's date of birth through the Strava API?
-
If not, are there any known workarounds or plans to include this field in future updates?
This data would be extremely useful for age-based features such as performance grouping, personalized training plans, or leaderboard segmentation.
I've also sent a feature request to the Strava API team, but I wanted to check here in case anyone has encountered and solved this issue, or if there are any unofficial methods or fields I might have missed.
Thanks in advance for your help!
