14 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

get_athlete

Use this to review personal profile details, check equipment assignments, or verify account settings. Get the authenticated athlete's profile information

get_athlete_zones

Required for zone-based training analysis. Use this to review training zones, ensure zones are correctly set, or use zone data for activity analysis. Get the athlete's custom heart rate and power zones

create_activity

Required: name (activity name), type (activity type like "Run", "Ride", "Swim", "Walk", "Hike"), startDate (ISO 8601 format), elapsedTime (seconds). Optional: description, distance (meters). Use this to log activities recorded outside of Strava (gym workouts, yoga, cross-training, etc.). Activity types must match Strava's valid types list. Create a manual activity in Strava

get_gear

The gearId is found in activity data or athlete profile. Use this to check equipment mileage for maintenance planning or to analyze performance with specific gear. Get details about a piece of equipment (bike, shoes) tracked in Strava

get_route

The routeId is found in Strava route URLs. Use this to review route characteristics before training or to plan similar routes. Get detailed information about a specific Strava route

export_route_gpx

GPX files can be downloaded and loaded onto GPS devices (Garmin, Wahoo, etc.) for navigation. The routeId is from Strava route URLs. Use this to export routes to your GPS device for guided training. Get the GPX export URL for a Strava route

get_route_streams

The "types" parameter is comma-separated: "latlng", "altitude", "distance". Use this to preview a route's elevation profile, understand the terrain, or export GPS data for navigation. Get elevation and GPS data streams for a Strava route

export_route_tcx

TCX files include route data with additional training metadata. Compatible with Garmin Training Center and other fitness platforms. Use this to export routes with training metadata. Get the TCX export URL for a Strava route

list_routes

Each route includes: name, distance, elevation gain, type (ride/run), description, and whether it's private. Use this to review saved routes, plan upcoming workouts, or export route data for GPS devices. List all routes created by the authenticated athlete

star_segment

Set starred=true to favorite, starred=false to unfavorite. The segmentId is from Strava segment URLs. Use this to manage your favorite segments for quick access and training focus. Star (favorite) or unstar a Strava segment

update_activity

The activityId is the numeric ID. Updatable fields: name, description, sport_type, gear_id (to assign equipment), commute (mark as commute: "true"/"false"), trainer (mark as indoor: "true"/"false"). Use this to correct activity details, assign gear, or add descriptions after the fact. Update an existing Strava activity

update_athlete

Currently only "weight" (in kg) is supported by the API. Accurate weight is important for power-to-weight ratio calculations and performance analysis. Use this when your weight changes to keep performance metrics accurate. Update the authenticated athlete's profile information

upload_activity

Supported data_type: "fit", "fit.gz", "tcx", "tcx.gz", "gpx", "gpx.gz". Returns an upload ID to check status with get_upload_status. Note: Actual file upload requires multipart/form-data with the file content. This endpoint initiates the process. Check upload status periodically — processing takes 10-60 seconds. Upload an activity file (FIT, TCX, GPX) to Strava for processing

get_upload_status

Status values: "Your activity is ready" (success), "Your activity is still processing" (wait and retry), or error messages. The uploadId is returned by upload_activity. Poll this endpoint every 5-10 seconds after upload until ready. Check the status of a Strava activity upload
