Hey all, I have searched and found some similar issues with Win10, firewall and OAuth for cloud sync. I have tried the recommended fix of using a vpn to do the oauth but have the same result as described.

I am on archLinux AUR install of GC and received the following when trying to sync Strava.

"Error retrieving access token, Host requires authentication (204)"

I tried to remove and re-add Strava cloud account but receive the same message after the OAuth Page and clicking "Authorize" in the Strava web page pop-up.

I can sync Today's Plan without issues.

Are there certain keys which are included at build to allow Strava sync to work?

Thanks,

Mike

See the comments in tat file. You'll need to sign up to Strava as a developer and get your own secret/token/client ID etc.

Awesome, thanks a lot! I did not do a great job of checking the wiki first.
I have a developer account so I'll add my secrets and recompile.
