With Walls.io, you can automatically import activities from Strava onto your Wall. It's easy to achieve this with our Zapier integration. This step-by-step guide explains how it's done.
🚨 Important: This integration requires access to the Walls.io API, which can be purchased as an add-on for all plans. API access is also included in our Enterprise plans and some legacy plans.
1. Sign-up to Zapier
To get started, sign up with Zapier (https://zapier.com/) if you haven't already. Zapier is a marketing tool that allows you to connect hundreds of apps without coding skills. Zapier is offering free plans, so you can get started right away!
2. Enable API access for your wall
In Walls.io, go to "Settings" -> "API Access" and activate the access token:
3. Create & name your Zap
In Zapier, start to create your "Zap" by clicking "Make a Zap" (a Zap is kind of a "recipe" that will connect two apps, in our case Strava + Walls.io). Enter a name for your Zap, f.e. "Strava to Walls.io".
4. Choose "Strava" for the Trigger App
5. Choose "New Activity" as trigger event:
This trigger will be fired every time a new activity is added to your Strava account.
6. Sign in to Strava
If this is your first Zap using Strava, you'll have to "Sign in to Strava" to give Zapier permission to access your Strava account:
Clicking "Test Trigger" will bring in the most recent activity:
8. Choose "Walls.io" for the Action
9. Choose "Create Post" for the action event:
10. Sign in to Walls.io
If this is your first Zap using Walls.io, you'll have to "Sign in to Walls.io" and copy/paste the API token obtained in step 2:
11. Customize Post
Finally, you need to map the Strava fields to Walls.io. We recommend to get started with these fields:
Name
(of Activity)Distance in K
Pace in K
Elevation
Start Latitude
Start Longitude
Select True
for Moderation Status
if you want to set your wall to Automatic Moderation. If you prefer to have Manual Moderation (=approve each post manually before it gets displayed on your social Wall), select "False".
11. Test your Zap and turn it on!
After turning on your Zap, all activities on your Strava account will be automatically sent to your Wall! 🚀
