Is there any way to get to the full activity stream from specific friends, from an API perspective? It seems like API: https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/{id}/streams?keys=watts only works for your own activites.

However, the full activity is available through the website (with cookie authentication):

https://www.strava.com/activities/9297562809/streams?stream_types%5B%5D=latlng&stream_types%5B%5D=privacy&stream_types%5B%5D=time&stream_types%5B%5D=heartrate&stream_types%5B%5D=altitude&stream_types%5B%5D=distance&stream_types%5B%5D=moving&stream_types%5B%5D=velocity_smooth&stream_types%5B%5D=cadence&stream_types%5B%5D=watts&stream_types%5B%5D=watts_calc

If this is available on the website, why isn't on the API side?

thanks,

Your friends need to connect to your app and with their bearer tokens you can get their streams. That's just the way it works, mainly due to privacy and server load reasons.
