Solved

Is anyone else encountering a 502 Bad Gateway error when attempting to upload an activity using TCX data? While it was previously functional, the system is now displaying a message saying "Strava is temporarily unavailable. Please visit http://status.strava.com for further information. We appreciate your patience."Interestingly, the status page indicates that all systems are functioning normally, leading me to question whether there could be limitations placed on my usage or perhaps another underlying issue. It's worth noting that my code is unlikely to be the problem, as it has functioned without issue in the past. Im using it solely for testing purposes at the time before making it production ready in my application and filling in the forms for a review. The client id and secret is only shared between me and another developer so we can test it out on iOS and Android.

Hi all.I have a django app that connects to Strava through oauth.When I set the authorisation up, a while ago, I used the defaults that are detailled here , which means that the scope of my access token is read.At that time, I did not know exactly what I would need, so it was fine.But as my app progressed, I realised that the read scope prevented me from getting any ride data that falls under my privacy settings.So I wanted to update the scope to read_all and to add activity:read_all also, to get all the data. But I have not been successful at all at modifying the scope of my access token.I' ve tried to create another one (including following https://developers.strava.com/docs/authentication/ ) byt when I check on my settings/api page, the scope is still read.Strangely enough, I now have two tokens that I can use to connect, but the one with extended scope works only when I curl, not when I use django.I have run out of ideas on how to either delete my current access token and crea

We have an iphone and watch os app and would like for our users to be able to connect to strava such that their workouts automatically upload from our app on their device to our server and then from our server to strava (all automatically once they have connected their strava account to their account on our server).  Concept 2 does it this way for their ergData app using their online logbook. We are looking for what code or setup would be best for connecting their Strava account to their account on our server and then how their workouts would get automatically set to strava. In addition and similar to what Concept 2 does we'd like to also send a generated jpeg with the upload to strava that shows their workout interval summary information. Any guidance or help is greatly appreciated.

Hi It's not clear from the email what will happen if apps aren't submitted for review, will the app lose access to the API or just to support or something else?

Hi Folks, Trying to use the API to upload activities recorded by a Chinese Bicycle Computer, that junk product cannot automatically upload data to Strava, so I have to write a script to get those fit files via adb, and then upload them to strava via api. However I got response like this: Upload failed: {"message":"Authorization Error","errors":[{"resource":"AccessToken","field":"activity:write_permission","code":"missing"}]} I used scope = ['activity:write'] when getting an access_token, and I found out I always get the same access token whatever I set the scope to be. That access token is also the one showed on https://www.strava.com/settings/api, under that I can see scope: read, just like https://communityhub.strava.com/t5/developer-discussions/authentication-scope/m-p/6357. In order to upload fit files I need a token with "activity:write", but I cannot find anywhere to change the scope of my access token. Of course I tried to solved this b

Hello everybody, I would like to livestream my first half marathon on Twitch. To make it more fun, I would like to display some real-time information about my race (heart rate, time per km, distance traveled...) by retrieving this information from the Strava application on my Apple Watch. Do you think this is possible? I'm just starting to code and I don't understand everything yet. If some people could enlighten me I would be very grateful. Thank you so much. Gael    

We manufacture device and would like it mapped on Strava.therefore submitted a device mapping STRAVA request form, but it has been 10 business days and no response.Please tell me what is the reason?Will modifying the content of the form during the review process recalculate the response time?Looking forward to your reply!

Hi, can I get all rides or recent rides that are intersecting exact area?I want to build a website for local MTB trails and I want to include there a block with recent rides on the trails

Hi, I am new to Strava API development. I found examples of getting the segment leaderboard on the internet, but it's not in the API documentation and my code never returns anything so I am guessing those don't exist anymore. Any pointers? I would like to know the top10 times for segments. TIA!

Activities via: https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities Shows "elapsed_time" in seconds but if the activity is longer than 24hours it seems to only contain the remainder after the first 24hours e.g. https://www.strava.com/activities/3886452961/overview = 27:52:15/activities returns:"elapsed_time": 13935 = 3:52:15 https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/3886452961 returns: "elapsed_time": 100335 = 27:52:15   Is this known/expected behaviour? Seems like a possible bug?  

Not sure if there is any guidance for this or if this is somehow expected? I have a run activity which is 27:52:15 long The API (https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities)  returns:"elapsed_time": 13935 Which is: 03:52:15 (obviously less 24) Activity id: 3886452961 When calling the activity directly: https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/3886452961?include_all_efforts=false "elapsed_time": 100335 >> the correct amount

Hello! I was wondering if there are any plans to develop an API that would allow club owners to create events. The reason I'm asking is that I find myself in a situation where I have many past events that I would like to reuse for future club events, and it would be amazing if I could automate this process. Would you happen to have any information on this topic?

It would be great to be able to add a webhook subscription directly within  https://www.strava.com/settings/apiRight now the overhead of having to implement the subscription programmatically from the client means we need a one-off Strava implementation that doesn't look like any other product that offers this kind of webhook service. This is harder to support over time, and has meant we have had to rely on polling the activity endpoints more than we want to.Thanks for listening! 

Hi, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this but I will just go ahead: I am trying to set up a webhook to strava and followed this guide. I think I made a mistake when sending the request to the push_subscriptions endpoint and did not save the response from it. Now I would like to delete the subscription as described in this article. Because I did not save the response from the first request I do not know my subscription ID. To retrieve this ID I tried to make a GET request to the push_subscriptions endpoint and view the subscription, as described in the article aswell. This however does not work and returns this errror: The request I sent to receive this errror was the following (in Python): When trying to just subscribe again, I just get the error that a subscription already exists, so I do want to delete it or at least be able to view it. I would really appreciate some help with this issue, and sorry if there is a better place to ask these kind of questions.

Strava calculates the nearest possible location of where an activity was performed. For example, if you ride your bike in a local state park, Strava is able to retrieve that information and add it next to the time and date of your activity. Is it possible to expose this information as part of the API response for an activity?The use case I have is to get the location data and stick it to the title as part of post process automation to indicate where an activity was performed.

Hello Strava team, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Marcos and I have recently been experiencing difficulties while using the Strava API, specifically with the OAuth authentication process. The code I have been using up until now is as follows: curl -X POST https://www.strava.com/api/v3/oauth/token -d client_id=ReplaceWithClientID -d client_secret=ReplaceWithClientSecret -d grant_type=refresh_token -d refresh_token=ReplaceWithRefreshToken Unfortunately, it seems that this code is no longer working and I am having trouble obtaining the code parameter required for some requests. Furthermore, after checking the documentation page, I noticed that the information does not appear to be up-to-date. I would like to request your assistance in resolving this issue and, if possible, ask for an update to the documentation. This would be extremely helpful for me and other developers who use the Strava API. Thank you in advance for your attention and I eagerly await your guidance. Best

Hi, I have an issue with Strava API. I want to get activity streams and especially cadence, watts and temp for 1 activity.Problem: with my requests below, I can only see 'temp' and not cadence and watts.header = {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + access_token}param = {'keys': ['cadence', 'watts', 'temp'], 'key_by_type': True}time_list = requests.get(url, headers=header, params=param).json()Does it mean we are able to do only 1 key per request ? Meaning I should have to do 3 requests and not only one ? Thanks

Hi there, Following the docs I've gotten to the point where I can't make any requests with the `@auth-spa-js` Auth0 client, since it default attaches `openid` to the beginning of the scope on any request. Thus, when trying to login with this client, I get a `scope invalid` message, since the scope is `openid+read` instead of `read`. It seems they aren't planning on changing this, so is there any way for openid to be an expected scope? (source of them not planning to change it: https://github.com/auth0/auth0-spa-js/issues/433)

Can the Webhook Events API be extended to include changes to other data? Currently we can only recieve a webhook for these 3 events: Title Type Privacy However other changes, like media changes (photos or videos) don't have a notification. And I'm seeing these additions after the initial activity creation quite often. The Strava mobile Application event has a separate "Add Media" context menu item but these adds are silent from the Events API perspective.  

I would like to develop only for myself (not for other users). Is there the concept of personal access tokens like many other APIs have for this purpose so I don't have to build the oauth flow just to get my own data? Examples of companies having this are Airtable and Github. 

Hello,I'm implementing a rate-limiter library in my code to make sure I don't overpass the limits.Are the 0auth calls (made to https://www.strava.com/api/v3/oauth/token) also included in the rate limits? Thank youMarc

Currently the create event webhook contains a field event_time. Adding another field with the start time of the workout would make it possible to check whether the application has received the workout from another source (e. g. garmin) already. That would allow developers to further save api calls to get the activity.

I’m using the Strava api’s and having the free subscription, I need to calculate the burned calories of the activity/sport I’m doing,But I didn’t find any api to fetch all the sports/activities, do anyone suggest any api where I can give the activity name/ sport name like running, swimming, HIIT etc with the time duration and in response it can provide the burned calories in the time period.

Dear Moderators and Forum Readers, We are using the Strava API since years in our product. We are utilizing the detailed activity streams as well. In the API reference the structure of the response of activity streams are described in good detail, however there is nothing said on how the data shall be interpreted (e.g. an entry in the ,,velocity_smooth'' is 1.0m/s what does it mean, is it the actual speed on a given time or an average of a longer time period?...). We see a lot of various ,,formats'' for these streams: for some users and activities, there is a data record for each second, in some cases, we have records for every few seconds. We can see also sparse formats, with only a few record for the entire activity, or even having data records for every second, except a few, large periods without any data record. This makes implementing a general solution for interpreting the data really hard. My question is, that is there any good and detailed description about how to interpret the

Hello, we are developing a Digital Social Platform dedicated to Sports Events. We would like that our users could import their Strava friends, just like Strava does with Facebook. However, it seems that Strava API doesn't support this feature. Is that true? Thanks in advance
