Just got an email from Strava that third-party apps (like Intervals) are only allowed to show certain data to the user. Does that have any impact on functionality within Intervals?
Things that came to mind were the ability to see profiles of your friends (if they allow you to). They also mention “AI functionality” which I don’t believe any of the models on this site are considered. Anything we should be concerned about from a functionality standpoint? I think Intervals is perfect like it is so I’m hoping this is a non-issue!
Hi, I’m not getting any import from strava into intervals. Will this rectify after 01/12 or is there a connection issue at my end? I’ve reconnected to strava and still nothing coming through.
It looks like your Strava is working from what I can see. No errors in logs and most recent activity came in on Monday (“Upper body”). This update shouldn’t have any impact on activity sync, just on who can see them.
Thanks for the quick reply David. Apologies for not getting back sooner.
I’m only getting sync from my Wahoo and can’t see anything from strava.
This is both in mobile and laptop browser. I’ve attached a screenshot.
Your Wahoo activities are replacing the matching Strava ones. You can see this if you click Options and tick the “Show Source” and “Deleted” checkboxes.
Well, if you do not intend to use Wahoo anyway then why do you not disable the activity pull from Wahoo? It makes no sense to pull identical activities from two different sources, i.e., from both
the wahoo->strava–>intervals.icu
and the wahoo->intervals.icu
routes. Just untick the “ Downlaod activities” checkbox:
you do know that Strava is changing their T&C and this is gonna cause issues possibly and intervals.icu is recommending that users all switch away from strava as sauce.
I didn’t realise the full implications of this. Supposedly apps using the Strava API can no longer do any analytics on the data. Intervals.icu will hide Strava data from people other than the athlete but will obviously continue to do analytics (duh!). But it is possible that Strava will kill Intervals.icu API access.
Yes but remember you only get one shot at fetching history back to a year. Then you need to use the “Import All Garmin Data” button in the Garmin box in /settings.
I don‘t know who Strava think they are. They get free data shoved down their throats while their premium features are utterly pointless and now, instead of putting in some real work and improving, they try to kill those who do. Feels like an absolute power trip and hopefully they will have to backpaddle massivley soon. For my part, I guess I‘m just gonna delete my Strava Account and import directly into intervals.
You own your data but this is Strava limiting what you can do if you want to use their API which they own.
I wonder if the companies feeding data to Strava via their APIs would have any clout to do this in reverse? A condition of using the open Garmin API could be that you allow the data to be shared onwards to others with no restrictions
I just saw a vid by DC Rainmaker on this topic and off the back of that I’m wondering if the wording doesn’t also include the aggregate analysis of our data. So things like showing the total rides/kms as well as best power numbers.
