Removing location_* from activities

[Paul Mach]

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately, we need to stop populating the `location_city`, `location_state` and `location_country` attributes in the activity responses. This change will take place on December 18th, 2015. Sorry for the short notice, but this is related to our maps contract with Google and needs to happen by the end of the year.

We are looking to completely remove these fields some time in the future. This will likely happen around the March 2016 timeframe.

Please let me know if you have questions.

Hi Paul,

Will these fields also stop being populated (and later removed) from the Athlete and Segment end points also?

Cheers

Ben

Hi Ben,

Athlete and segment data is not affected, the location fields for them will continue to be available and populated via the API.  Only the location_* fields for activities are being deprecated.

Thanks,

~Brian
