Import fails with syntax error

Several users have reported unexpected “JSON Syntax” errors while importing:

Import error

All of these issues share the same root cause: at some point, data became corrupted. Unfortunately, we still don’t know exactly how or why this corruption occurs.

To resolve this, we’ve created a CLI tool that can detect corrupted data by identifying the activities that trigger these errors and deleting them. During the next import run, the deleted activities will be automatically re-imported from Strava.

Run the following command:

Terminal window
> docker compose exec app bin/console app:import:detect-corrupted-activities

This command will guide you step by step through identifying and deleting the affected activities..
