Strautomator keeps a detailed log of every activity it has processed and every automation that fired. The Automation History page gives you a searchable record you can use to verify that your automations are working correctly, audit past changes, or troubleshoot unexpected results.

Accessing automation history

Go to Automations → History in the main navigation. The history page shows a table of processed activities with the date, activity name, and which automations triggered on each one.

Filtering by date range

Use the From date and To date pickers at the top of the page to narrow the results to a specific window, then click Search activities.
  • PRO users can search up to 2 years of history.
  • Free users have access to a shorter rolling window (30 days).
Upgrade to PRO for extended history access and to run batch sync on older activities.

Reprocessing a single activity

If you recently changed an automation and want to apply it to an activity that has already been processed, you can reprocess it manually:
1

Go to Recent Activities

Navigate to Activities → Recent in the main navigation. Strautomator shows your most recent Strava activities.
2

Click Process

Find the activity you want to reprocess and click the Process button. Strautomator re-evaluates all your enabled automations against that activity and applies any matching actions.
3

Check the result

Open the activity on Strava to confirm the changes, or return to Automations → History and search for the activity to see which automations fired.
Reprocessing applies your current automations as they exist today. If your automations have changed since the activity was first processed, the new run may produce different results — including overwriting names or descriptions that were already set.

Debugging an activity

The Recent Activities page includes a Debug button alongside each activity. Clicking it shows you the full raw data Strautomator received from Strava for that activity — every field and value exactly as the system sees them. Use the debug view to:
  • Confirm that a specific field (e.g., speedAvg, elevationGain, gear) has the value you expect.
  • Understand why a condition matched or did not match.
  • Copy exact field values to use when building new conditions.
This is the most reliable way to troubleshoot an automation that isn’t firing when you think it should.

Batch sync: run automations on historical activities

Batch sync lets you retroactively run all your current automations on a range of past Strava activities. This is useful when you:
  • Set up automations for the first time and want them applied to your existing activity history.
  • Change an automation and want to backfill the new behavior.
  • Import a large number of past activities and want them processed automatically.

How to start a batch sync

1

Go to Batch Sync

Navigate to Activities → Batch Sync.
2

Accept the risk acknowledgment

Read the warning carefully. Batch sync is not reversible — it applies your current automations to all matched activities, potentially overwriting names, descriptions, gear assignments, and other fields that were previously set. Check the acknowledgment box to continue.
3

Configure filters

Narrow which activities to process using the available filters:
  • Date range — choose a From and To date.
  • Activity privacy — filter by public, followers-only, or only-me activities.
  • Sport type — limit to a specific sport.
4

Click Batch process activities

Start the job. Strautomator queues the activities and processes them in small batches. Depending on the number of activities, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours.
5

Monitor progress in History

Once the job is queued, Strautomator redirects you to Automations → History where you can watch activities appear as they are processed.

Batch sync limits and notes

  • You can trigger batch sync once every 24 hours.
  • Free users can process activities up to a limited number of days in the past.
  • PRO users can process activities up to the plan’s maximum history window.
  • Weather tags may not be available for activities older than approximately one week, depending on your location and weather provider.
  • If you have Garmin or Wahoo integration, upload the corresponding FIT files first (via Activities → Upload FIT files) so that Garmin/Wahoo conditions and tags work correctly on historical activities.
There is no way to stop or undo a batch sync once it starts. Double-check your automations for misconfigured conditions before triggering a batch run.
