query the strava api in javascript

To query the Strava API in JavaScript, you will first need to authenticate with the API using OAuth2. Strava's API documentation provides detailed information on the authentication process.

Once authenticated, you can use a library like Axios to make HTTP requests to the API. The Strava API supports both GET and POST requests, and returns data in JSON format.

Here's an example of how to use Axios to make a GET request to the Strava API:

index.tsx
const axios = require('axios');

const token = 'your_strava_api_access_token';
const activityId = '123456';

axios.get(`https://www.strava.com/api/v3/activities/${activityId}`, {
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`
  }
})
.then(response => {
  console.log(response.data);
})
.catch(error => {
  console.log(error);
});
333 chars
17 lines

This code would make a GET request to the Strava API to retrieve activity data for the activity with ID '123456'. The access token is included in the request headers as a bearer token.

Note that the specific endpoints available through the Strava API may vary depending on your API permissions and user authentication status. Refer to the Strava API documentation for more information.
