While I’m not personally affected since Garmin is my primary data source, I find it absolutely outrageous what’s happening here. These are my data, which I voluntarily provide to Strava for their use. Therefore, it should be my choice what happens with these data and what doesn’t.
There should absolutely be options to determine how my data can and cannot be used via the API.
Even though, as mentioned, I’m not directly affected, I consider Strava’s actions extremely disrespectful. For this reason, I will be canceling my Strava Premium subscription. In my opinion, it has already lost its value for some time now, but this was the last straw.
Hopefully (even though I doubt it), enough users will cancel their subscriptions to make Strava realize that they can’t do whatever they want. They have no right to claim sole control over my data – data I only share with them for processing purposes.
In the short term will zwift activities synced to wahoo in turn sync to intervals?
Had anyone found a solution for syncing lezyne activities? It’s only a small proportion of my rides but works be nice to have those come over automatically without Strava
I have a question, if I download my activity (download a file) from Strava and upload it to Intervals will it be considered as violation their new rules?
I used their API to time a race segment within a race my club organised. I was sent a mail to kindly refrain from doing it. Not sure how they picked it up, but they did.
Yes they have always had stuff like “you can’t analyse the data from Strava” in there which I have always ignored because how can any app not “analyse” the data? But I will have to implement the hiding stuff. They are sure to want that done.
I am pursuing as many direct integration opportunities as I can.
If Strava connection is removed, all Strava activities from intervals are removed?
If I keep Strava connection, but uncheck all checkboxes (including “Download activities”), already imported activities are preserved (though visible only for me), but no new activities will be imported from Strava from now on?
Thanks!
So basically you record an activity with your head unit which results in a .fit file. This file gets uploaded to Strava and suddenly it isn’t yours anymore? This is an absolutely ridiculous move from Strava.
Its good idea but, after re-upload names are out of sync. Name on intervals is the name of workout from that day, and name on strava remains untouched.
Outrageous that Strava thinks they own MY data. Cut their connection to Zwift, Garmin, and here. Of course all of my data here disappeared, but I requested my data from Garmin(which I have always used) and linked the files here. So, back in business!
Only issue I have now is Mywhoosh does not connect here. Any chance for that in the forseeable future?
I tried to contact mywhoosh today regarding integration, they answered me immediately and they looked like they want to pursue it, hopefully, you will hear from them soon.
Outstanding! I only rode there a few times as they do not support external cadence sensors, only built-in trainer cadence. Getting a Jet Black Victory by the end of the month, or so they say, so want to ride there more when my Zwift subscription expires. Will probably keep Zwift for part of the year, though.
This could help intervals.icu standalone as the go to middleman for activity syncs… along with a graphical refresh of those connections perhaps, clearly showing inputs and outputs.
Don’t see the ‘Big win’ here but I may overlook something…
The file coming from your device/app/… would then first have to go to some ‘middleman’ that runs it through a utility to spoof the device type. And only then it can go to Garmin which will (with the Garmin device id) forward it to Intervals.
How are you going to route the file in an automatic way?
If it needs manual intervention, you can simply load it directly in Intervals.
The whole fuss here is that ‘automatic’ uploading of activity files for devices/apps that don’t have an API themselves will no longer work…
