How to get all time local legend data?

Hey friends, I've been dying for an "all-time local legend" feature (i.e. number of attempts on a segment not just in the past 90 days). I'd really like to build it myself from the Strava API but I'm not sure I can extrapolate the data from what the API surfaces. I'm able to get the local legend data for a given segment, but nothing before the last 90 days. I'm wondering 2 things:- Am I missing an easy way to solve this problem?- If not, would the Strava engineering team every consider adding functionality to the API to fetch all time local legends? (Or even fetching local legends for a given time range).Any thoughts are welcome!

getLoggedInAthleteActivities does not include descent

Hi,getLoggedInAthleteActivities does not include a field for descent. I understand that the fields in SummaryActivity are returned, but why is there no field containing information about the negative elevation gain during an activity. I feel that this is a central piece of information if an activity's start/end places are not the same.Are there plans to add this information? If not, how can I submit a feature request?Kind regards,Brian

De-authorization of expired auth

Coming from https://github.com/dblock/slack-strava/issues/157. I have 3,461 users authenticated with Strava according to https://www.strava.com/settings/api, but only 1,226 are currently active. Many users were trials or dropped off the app.I'll work on de-authorizing users before deleting them, but is there a way to list authenticated users/purge these users for whom tokens weren't renewed in a long time? Any other ideas of how to deal with authorized users that aren't active and have expired tokens?

Summary values, or data dump download?

Hi, I'm trying to find out some things about the Stava community as a whole, over the last year (or longer).Things like sport/activity popularity by country, number of clubs per country, popular routes in each country, etc.To do this I'd need more data than is feasible to collect using the API as far as I can see, so I was wondering if there is a data dump available anywhere, or perhaps I've missed an endpoint summarising Strava data which could be useful.Does anyone know if either of those resources exist somewhere?Thanks!

Make the activity response usable

Hello, I'm using the getClubActivities endpoint to keep a tally of individual rides in my club. I would like to limit the response to a certain date, or at least to a certain week (i.e. this week). Is there a way to do this? Getting the date of the activity in the API Response would be enough.

Possible bug in swagger definition of endpoint PUT /athlete

Regarding swagger definition on https://developers.strava.com/swagger/swagger.json, the definition of parameter `weight` of the endpoint could be incorrect as I think it should be `query` instead of `path`.

Club Activities has no ID

HII have a Club that does specific rides. The are not club events. We have a virtual route every day that members can ride within a date range. The times are then tallied after all the stages are done to get a winner. Problem is Strava get the entire ride time, so you finish a ride and then continue to do 5-10 min cooldown. This total time is then allocated to the club leaderboard. I then develop an API with the idea to extract the time at a certain distance. So I know the stage is 30km long and would then take the time at the point for my custom leaderboard. But I have seen that to get stream data from Strava you need to have the activity ID. This is not accessible from the club:}, "name": "Alpha Beta TDV - Stage 15", "distance": 24294.6, "moving_time": 3017, "elapsed_time": 3017, "total_elevation_gain": 121, "type": "VirtualRide", "sport_type": "VirtualRide" }, {  There is no such field. Any way to get the stream data from club activities to ensure

Query Regarding App Review Process and Timeline

Dear Strava Community/Developer Team,We have developed an app aimed at promoting fitness activities in a rural area of India, as part of our "Consistency Movement" initiative. This initiative will feature a daily dashboard showcasing leaders across various regions. To achieve this, we plan to integrate our app with Strava and encourage all citizens to download Strava for activity tracking.On July 1st, we submitted our app for review and received confirmation that it is currently under review. While we understand that the review process duration can vary, we are eager to know how we will be notified once the review process is complete.Any insights or guidance from the community or Strava team regarding the review timeline and notification process would be greatly appreciated.Thank you for your support.

'oauth/token' endpoint not working

I am following the steps of the getting started guide: https://developers.strava.com/docs/getting-started/#oauthI am on step 11, attempting to make an authentication request in Postman, equivalent to the one shown in the guide. When I make the request in Postman (see image below), I get a response of a Strava page saying 'Sorry, this one stays red.'I also tried using the end 'api/v3/oauth/token' endpoint from this example cURL request in the authentication documentation: https://developers.strava.com/docs/authentication/#:~:text=always%20be%20%22authorization_code%22.-,Example%20cURL%20Request,-curl%20%2DX%20POST . But I ran into the error described in this post: https://communityhub.strava.com/t5/developer-discussions/api-v3-auth-error/m-p/25187 which indicates that 'api/v3/oauth/token' isn't even a valid endpoint.What am I doing wrong?

Private app for ten people - is it possible?

HelloI want to create app for me and my friends - around 10 people.We want to share out activities within this app but it will be only for our private usage. We want to scale some results within different types of activities and create ranking who made the longest distance.If I understood correctly: to achieve it, every person needs to authorize my app and then I can get details of their activities. But to have 10 users authorized I need to fill form to review my app.So before I started:Is it possible to have my app reviewed and increase number of users to 10 or would it be to small app for Strava to give such access?

Segment time - local area

Hi,Trying to get a view of local segments and what the fastest time/speed on each is. I can return local segments in a bounded area, but can't get any data on the results for that segment. Would be great if I could get the number of attempts that deemed it Local Legend also. I can do it on the site, but I'd like to do it programmatically so I can show a heat map for athletes.  any pointers gratefully recieved.

New webhook subscription error

Hello,I am trying to subscribe to webhook events, but I have the following issues.I get an error: "GET to callback URL does not return 200", so I did a test, as mentioned in Troubleshooting Tips, by sending a GET request to my callback URL. The test worked fine and the response is under 2 seconds. I would appreciate some feedback on this matter. I have also attached 2 images showing the process. In the first image, there is a POST request to the subscription endpoint with a status of 400, while the second is a test to my callback URL with a status of 200.Am I missing something here? Thank you for your help.

Creating a Master Event List for my city/region

Hi there, lets say I live in X city and there are 10 cycling clubs in the city or 10 running clubs, I'd like to host a calendar available to the public that can see any event that gets posted by any of these clubs so that we can get more people aware of what's going on, cycling, running, and finding community. Is this possible with the Strava API? Thanks. Can be done manually, but thats not why we're developers is it.

I have an app which is authenticating switch off. This means an android device will be on when stolen. I am using strava app which is recording distance used while offline. This is what I need to be able to track stolen devices as long as I have installed the app on them. I need you to develop the app for my company to do the location tracking.

Deauthorizing with an expired access token

Hello,This link explains how to deauthorize an application.https://developers.strava.com/docs/authentication/#deauthorization`access_token` is a required param. Does it need to be active? Or can it be expired?I'm assuming it can be expired. For example, a user should be able to deauthorize an application many days after they initially authorised it.Thanks!

Salesforce and Strava Integration of the API for Improved Data Management

Hello Strava Developers, I am working on a project that will connect Salesforce with Strava's API to improve the management of data and provide us additional insights into our exercise habits. I am having issues and have some expertise with both platforms; I would appreciate any advice or examples that you could give. I have some question. What is the most effective way for Salesforce to manage OAuth 2.0 authentication for the Strava API? what is the best methods for converting Strava data into custom fields & objects in Salesforce? When integrating with Salesforce & how do you successfully handle API rate challenges and errors; We would appreciate any techniques or resources to guarantee the reliability and preciseness of the data. I am  so excited about the potential of combining Strava’s rich activity data with Salesforces powerful CRM capabilities. It would be greatly appreciated 😊if you can share any guidance, code snippets & links to relevant sites. Thank

Dog friendly routes

Hello! I wanted to see if there was a way to either filter or check if routes are dog friendly or not. I use the Fi/Strava set up and live in Colorado - some trails/routes are not dog friendly. Right now I end up having to look at other apps to double check but I wanted to make sure I was not missing something on my Strava App. Thanks!!
