Strava API Streaming

Howdy folks! I have an issue I simply cannot figure out. 
I am trying to stream data from an activity. I am using postman to test my queries.

As we can see, the activity is real and works. The key has read all and read permissions for activities via 

scope=read,read_all,activity:read_all,activity:read,profile:read_all

However, the stream query is not working.

Any insights would be super appreciated.

This gives me a stream of distance, and does so with different parameters or without the parameters, as long as I have the code. But if I remove the forward slash prefacing the parameters, it doesn't work at all.

This worked for me:

https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/<ACTIVITY_ID_HERE>/streams?keys=time,distance,watts&key_by_type=true&access_token=<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>

Make sure your access token is valid and not expired.

The error message you've received says "Authorization Error" which means there's a problem with the token you're passing to the request. Looking at the URL in your get request, it appears there's an extra ? before the access_token parameter which is probably what is causing your problem. I'm not actually sure why your getActivity call worked as that has the same issue.

It doesn't work without the question mark
