Setup guide

Follow these steps to get the required credentials and inputs:

  • client_id and client_secret
    • Create a Strava account
    • Continue to follow the instructions from the doc above to obtain client_id and client_secret
  • refresh_token
    • Enter this URL into your browser (make sure to add your client_id from previous step:
      • http://www.strava.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=[REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_CLIENT_ID]&response_type=code&redirect_uri=http://localhost/exchange_token&approval_prompt=force&scope=activity:read_all
    • Authorize through the UI
    • Browser will redirect you to an empty page with a URL similar to http://localhost/exchange_token?state=&code=b55003496d87a9f0b694ca1680cd5690d27d9d28&scope=activity:read_all
    • Copy the authorization code above (in this example it would be b55003496d87a9f0b694ca1680cd5690d27d9d28)
    • Make a cURL request to exchange the authorization code and scope for a refresh token:
    • curl -X POST https://www.strava.com/oauth/token \
-F client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID \
-F client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET \
-F code=AUTHORIZATION_CODE \
-F grant_type=authorization_code
    • The resulting json will contain the refresh_token
    • Example Result:
    •   {
      "token_type": "Bearer",
      "expires_at": 1562908002,
      "expires_in": 21600,
      "refresh_token": "REFRESHTOKEN",
      "access_token": "ACCESSTOKEN",
      "athlete": {
          "id": 123456,
          "username": "MeowTheCat",
          "resource_state": 2,
          "firstname": "Meow",
          "lastname": "TheCat",
          "city": "",
          "state": "",
          "country": null,
          ...
      }
  }
    • Refer to Strava's Getting Started - Oauth or Authentication documents for more information
  • athlete_id
    • Go to your athlete page by clicking your name on the Strava dashboard or click on "My Profile" on the drop down after hovering on your top bar icon
    • The number at the end of the url will be your athlete_id. For example 17831421 would be the athlete_id for https://www.strava.com/athletes/17831421

Strava API has limitations to 100 requests every 15 minutes, 1000 daily. More information about Strava rate limits and adjustments to those limits can be found here.
