Developers & API

I want to switch from dev to production API so that I can integrate in my live website. For dev, I can just get one login. 

Hello,I know there are various third-party tools that use Strava API data for gathering information for crowns/CRs. However, I would like to gather information on a number of Local Legends for segments that are local to me. I have two questions:a) Are there any APIs available that include Local Legend data? I did a web search and found several references indicating that Local Legend data is not included in APIs, even though crown/CR data is in the APIs.b) If I use a web scraping tool to gather the Local Legend information from approximately 200 segments, would this violate any terms of my user agreement? Once again, I know that there are tools that exist to scrape this data for crowns/CRs, but I don't know if the same open policy applies to Local Legends data.Thank you!Dennis

Anyone else having this issue?Super simple:curl -k -X GET "https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/<ID>" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer ***" returns:{"message":"Resource Not Found","errors":[{"resource":"Activity","field":"","code":"not found"}]}The privacy controls are set to ‘Everyone’. I can’t return data for any activity.Clearly the token is fine, else its unauthorised. Thanks

Hi there,  I build the Fitshot app, client id 130939. I submitted an limit increase 8 days ago now, and have sent countless emails since then.  My app has not been accepting new reviews for days and is now getting negative reviews on the app store. I can’t possibly go into the weekend like this.  How can I possibly accelerate the review process? (even for a small limit increase while the application gets reviewed?)

I am reaching out for assistance with verifying the webhook URL for my application. I have registered the following callback URL to receive Strava webhook events:https://pacerai.vnHowever, I am encountering an issue where the webhook subscription cannot be verified successfully. Despite ensuring that the URL is publicly accessible and SSL is correctly configured, I have received an error indicating that the URL is "not verifiable."Could you kindly assist me in troubleshooting this issue and help ensure that my webhook URL is properly verified? Below are some key details for your reference: Webhook URL: https://pacerai.vn Platform: Strava Webhooks Issue Encountered: Callbac

(I’ve read the relevant posts on here but did not find the answers I seek there)Hi all,New to oauth2, building an app that needs to read activity data from Strava. For this, I need activity:read in my permission scope. However, I can only get the “read” scope despite choosing scope arg as “activity:read” or “read, activity:read”. I can see that the token generated only has “read” permission on the API app dashboard on my profile, and I also see an authorization error when I invoke the read activities API. Here is my code: REDIRECT_URI = "https://localhost:8501"AUTHORIZE_URL = "https://www.strava.com/oauth/authorize"TOKEN_URL = "https://www.strava.com/api/v3/oauth/token"SCOPE = "activity:read"API_BASE = 'https://www.strava.com/api/v3' auth_url = f"{AUTHORIZE_URL}?client_id={CLIENT_ID}&redirect_

Hello all,  In our cotacol (Belgian) app, we are leveraging Strava Segments so our members can "collect" different hills in Belgium.  Those hills match one:one with a Strava Segment.  Now, I am building a functionality, so that users can select one of their Routes and get to see which of the 1000 segments that would be conquored with that Route... However, just like the default behavior with an activity, it seems not all the routes are returned in the response for a Strava Route.  And I am wondering if there is a similar query string parameter we can use, to indicate we need all segments in the response.  (just like include_all_efforts with the GetActivity operation). What I am doing now:  - GET /routes/{routeId} This only returns a subset of the segments in the payload.    

why i have two api app with same clientId, and cant remove one of them, it confuse me bcs sometimes the app that shows in dashboard is the first one sometimes the other

Relatively new to this, so hopefully an easy mistake to fix: I am trying to set up an API connection so I can fetch my own data from Strava and import it to Excel. I am following the usual set-up as described here : https://developers.strava.com/docs/getting-started/#oauthAlthough I have tried the final authorization time and time again, it keeps saying my acces token is invalid. I have followed the steps multiple times. The token is not expired either, but it keeps giving me errors. I have checked step C4 and C5 in Postman. That does not give me errors. But when attempting D10/D11, I get either 404 errors (although im sure my website is correct) or 401 errors. I also notice that my acces token in step C4/C5 differs from the oneAny idea’s on how to solve this? 

Since last week I noticed that the all_*_totals (eg. all_run_totals) have reset on the API to start counting from 0 even though the Strava Portal clearly indicates a much higher number.  On Strava portal my all time running stats are 113However the API https://developers.strava.com/docs/reference/#api-Athletes-getStats no returns only my most recent run count"all_run_totals": { "count": 1, "distance": 5630.0, "moving_time": 2473, "elapsed_time": 2

Hello,I’m trying to find an API endpoint to get my best effort times on different run distances (1K, 5K, HM etc.), but I can’t find a sensible way to do it. I understand that I could, in theory, go through each detailed activity, but that would be a hassle. There must be a more efficient way of doing this? 

Can anyone help me understand why some segments appear to return segment efforts via API, and others do not?  Using the same query, changing only the segment ID, one segment returns efforts and another does not. When I view in the web UI, e.g. https://www.strava.com/segments/1234, I can see a recent effort (definitely within the time range).  Both activities are Followers Only, both are marked “downhill”, and I am properly authenticated.  I cannot tell any other important differences.  The only thing I can think of is that I have only done the segment that doesn’t work once, whereas the one that works I’ve done numerous times.What’s more, if I manually find the activity view the web UI, and query /api/v3/activities/4321, I am able to see the segment effort contained in that JSON response.  Any help appreciated.  Thanks in advance! 

Hello there,I’m currently working on webhook integrationAn existing webhook subscription is still active under this application, but it points to an outdated callback URL which is no longer online. As a result, any attempt to delete the subscription via the DELETE /push_subscriptions endpoint returns a 404 error.Is there a way to force-remove or to override a no-longer used subscription? The server to which the url points is no longer running since a while.Thanks a lot in advance for your help

https://developers.strava.com/docs/reference/#api-models-DetailedActivity states that a `best_efforts` field should be returned. Presumably this would be a subset of the `segment_efforts` collection, but I am not seeing it returned in any queries in order to verify this assumption. What are the conditions that result in an activity returning the `best_efforts` field? Is it a subset of `segment_efforts`? Or is it something else? The docs should be updated with this information.

Why does this rogue app called “a” appear in My Apps? It leads to a website of script-kiddy programmers who dabble in various LLMs.Who owns this app “a”?  When I revoke access, and change my password, it reappears anyway after up to one hour. See screenshot:The website this app links to is not a website I use, is not a professional website, and is six LLM programmers at university.  I don’t understand what is going on. Surely Strava aren’t using these guys for LLM processing? My account is not compromised and password has not been given to anybody. I do not use these LLM services. Thanks.

Is this issue happening to everyone?  Every request is returning a placeholder image.https://d3nn82uaxijpm6.cloudfront.net/assets/media/placeholder-photo@4x-6c5d2aaeadca1292be72943c04ea6defe7dcd610da7dc87a1ccaad30e134b2d6.png

I’m writing an app that uses the Strava API to show runs and whether they ran a segment or not. I don’t want to show data/details about the runs/athletes if the logged in user is not a “friend”.I cannot find anything in the documentation that shows an endpoint that would return a list of athletes that the logged in athlete follows, but I know I can GET an athlete and it will tell me if they are a friend or not, but I don’t want to spam that endpoint for every athlete/logged in athlete.If I ask AI it will talk about a `/athlete/friends` endpoint, but if I hit that I get a 401. I don’t know what scope I need for that (I have “read-all”).Can anyone help?

Hi,I´m using `${STRAVA_API_URL}/clubs/${clubId}/group_events` where const STRAVA_API_URL = "https://www.strava.com/api/v3"; For a certain clubId, which is 271922, I´m always getting a Gateway Time-Out. Now, I would understand they are having lots of events and hence this endpoint might need or have pagination available, but I cannot find any documentation about this.Is there any pagination documentation for this endpoint available?

Hi,We are pushing activities on Strava and we’d like to add line break and markdown into the description. We are using php code. With this example:$description = “I’ve done a test with **xxx**:\n";$description .= '**SV1**=150 W';The line break won’t appear in the activity description (nor the bold characters).  Does anyone has a solution for that ? Thanks,Pierre  

Hi everyone, I have a question that I can’t seem to find the answer/solution to. Basically upon plotting a route on Heatmaps the other day, I noticed that some local bike shops/mechanics are featured on the map but mine is not. Does anyone know how I can add my business to the map? I have tried adding it to Open Street Map (both shops I mentioned are also not on OSM) to no avail and I also have a Strava group too for my business.Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Hi,I would like the athletes capacity increase. currently it is just 1. Would like to to increase to 100. I’d be incredibly grateful for any help or direction to expedite this. 

please increase the limit stravaStravaMistake 403: Too many athletesThe limit of connected athletes has been exceeded. If you are the developer of this application, please contact Strava Developer Support to request an increase in the quota.application id 163714

Hello Strava Community, I have developed a non-commercial application named “FitScore” aimed at helping my office fitness group track and compare our activities. The app utilizes Strava data to generate weekly leaderboards, assign badges, and provide insights into our performance. To enhance the functionality of the app, I am requesting access to the following scopes:  activity:read_all profile:read_all  These scopes will allow the app to access detailed activity data and profile information necessary for generating accurate and personalized insights. The application is intended solely for personal use within our closed fitness group (20-25 members) and will not be distributed publicly or used for commercial purposes. I appreciate your consideration and am happy to provide any additional information required. Thank you!

Hello, I recently built a web app that utilizes data coming from Strada’s API. In that data there was a field named suffer_score, which seems to have disappeared within the last month. I’ve researched as to why, but could not find any documentation that this field was removed or renamed (I was thinking it may have been renamed to relative_effort).As a result of this field being removed unexpectedly, part of my app no longer works. Has anyone run into this issue before, or are there any solutions available? Thank you.

Hi Team, I am new to the Strava API and struggle to get the relative_effort and private_notes for my activities via the API. Anyone who solved this yet? activity:read_all is set.Many thanks Fabian
