# Get a Strava activity

Automatically get a Strava activity on strava.com. Returns one Strava activity: name, description, sport, local start time, location, distance, moving time, elevation gain, power and energy when recorded, the athlete, kudos and comment counts, and its segment efforts. Distances are in meters, times in seconds. The start time is null for activities whose page does not carry it as data (runs, for example), and shows 00:00:01 when the athlete hides start times. Fails when the activity does not exist or this account cannot see it.
