On my Garmin Forerunner 255 I have renamed my HIIT activities as CrossFit but when automatically imported into Strava they are listed incorrectly as a Workout rather than CrossFit.
I would like a feature to be able to say I wish these imported correctly to Strava as type CrossFit rather than workout.
Ability to automatically import HIIT activities from Garmin as CrossFit

Hello,
Thanks for clarifying that. When an activity file is synced over to Strava, we check for an activity type field in the file, and that helps us determine what Strava activity type to apply to the activity when it is displayed on your Strava account. Unfortunately naming a Garmin activity "CrossFit" will not cause it to be categorized as a CrossFit activity on Strava.
The good news is that if Garmin at some point adds CrossFit as an activity type on your watch, and they specify this in the file they upload to us, we will be able to automatically show your activity as "CrossFit".
The workaround in the meantime is to edit your Strava activity and change the activity type to "CrossFit" as you are doing now. Sorry I don't have better news on this!
