  • The OAuth Flow：

    • Get method redirect customer to strava with client_id, redirect_uri, etc, but not client_secret
    • customer is asked to logon Strava
    • customer is asked to grant data access to our APP
    • on success，strava redirect back to redirect_uri and exchange the temporary authorization code for an access token, using our client ID and client_secret [POST to https://www.strava.com/oauth/token]
    • if success our server will receive a customer token
    • then we can use this token in Strava API to collect customer data.
