Hello Strava Developer Support,

Our Strava API application is blocked with:
Error 403: Limit of connected athletes exceeded.

Client ID: 147184
App name: MetabolicSistem
Website: https://prototipoappcardiometabolica.lovable.app

We are preparing a private beta with the first 100 athletes (and a few coaches). Each athlete authorizes via OAuth and we import their activities for training load analytics. Processing is asynchronous (webhook → job queue → worker) with throttling and backoff to respect Strava rate limits.

Request: Please increase the connected athletes quota to at least 200 for this beta (100 users + buffer). If additional information is required (callback domain, privacy policy URL, etc.), please let us know.

Thank you.
