A little bit of a programming noob here, so forgive my ignorance!
I am trying to pull down my strava activities through a get request in python. I have gone ahead and authorized the API etc. with my app. The first time that i set up the authorization, I believe I gave a read only scope (rather than the read_all permissions needed for the type of data that I want). I went ahead re-authorizing, this time careful to include read_all in the URL- but I'm still having issues.
payload = {
'client_id': client_id,
'client_secret': client_secret,
'refresh_token': refresh_token,
'grant_type': "refresh_token",
'f': 'json'
}
res = requests.post(auth_url, data=payload, verify=False)
print("On a run to get the token...
")
auth_token_app = res.json()['access_token']
print('Token is:')
print(auth_token_app) I'm able to get an access token with the above code, and have tested this out with both the original refresh token I had stored down and the new one, which I believe is specific to the type of read-all permission that I need. I'm able to pull down my high-level stats at this URL:
{'message': 'Authorization Error', 'errors': [{'resource': 'AccessToken', 'field': 'activity:read_permission', 'code': 'missing'}]}
header = {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + auth_token_app}
url = 'https://www.strava.com/api/v3/athlete/activities'
param = {'per_page':200, 'page':1}
athlete_dataset = requests.get(url, headers=header, params=param).json()Any idea what's going on here? my strava API page shows a token with 'read' permission by the way- but the token I'm getting from the first block of code above doesn't match this one- so I had figured it might be the separate read_all authorized token that I've been looking for
