Strava API Playground questions

[Michael Nebelsick]

So I've entered my client_ID and client_secret (obtained from "My API Application" page) into the Swagger authorization screen, and select one or several of the scopes, but always get back the following error:

 {"message":"Bad Request","errors":[{"resource":"Authorize","field":"scope","code":"invalid"}]}

what could I be doing wrong, or what am I missing... seems this should work.

Hello,

I do notice the same behavious, wander if I'm missing something obvious. I do have a cllient-id and client-secret I fill in .. and then same as below.

Some pointers would be terrible helpfull ;-)

To answer my own question .. filling in right website/callbackdomain in the app did the trick

Thank you for the answer!  I finally got it to work too, but want to mention one other thing that may trip people up...  seems you can only select one of the scopes at a time (they should have used radio buttons instead of checkboxes if that is indeed the case).  Anyway, if I selected any 2 or all 3 scopes, I would still get the same error, but with Jan Willem's answer and only selecting one scope things work as expected.

Thank you so much for posting the answer. I had the save problem.

Wow thanks guys!!

1. had to set the website settings to dev tools..

2. could only select one option in Playground... agreed its confusing that you can only select one options and not multiple or else it will keep failing.

Hey I have been having the same issue and I tried changing the redirect url on the settings page and also change the scope to one value, but still no luck. What was the redirect URI that you included when creating the oauth url? In my case I have a stg and live platform so its necessary that my redirect uri in my code includes the subdomain stg.

Take a look:

In my code in order to create the oauth url I have it like this:

params = {
 'client_id': self.strava_client_id,
 'redirect_uri': 'https://stg.sixcycle.com/api/v3/strava/complete/?user_id={}'.format(self.user.id),
 'response_type': 'code',
 'approval_prompt': 'auto',
 'scope': 'read'
}
url_params = urllib.urlencode(params)

url = 'https://www.strava.com/oauth/authorize/?' + url_params

Any guidance or help would be appreciated!
