# How do I lift Strava's one-athlete limit?

Upgrade to 10 athletes yourself in Strava's API settings, then submit for review to go beyond that.

New Strava apps start in **single-player mode**, where only your own Strava account can connect. Creating an app needs a Strava subscription.

* **Up to 10 athletes:** upgrade your access yourself in your Strava API Settings Dashboard. No review is needed.
* **Beyond 10 athletes:** submit your app to Strava for review. Strava controls the review and its timeline, and Terra can't raise the limit for you, so submit early.

**Setup:**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Create your own app in Strava's developer portal.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Set the Authorization Callback Domain as described in [How do I set up my Strava credentials?](https://docs.tryterra.co/help-center/help-topics/connecting/setting-up-provider-credentials-bring-your-own-keys/strava-byo-credentials-callback-domain).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Add the Strava client ID and secret in the Terra dashboard under [Connections](https://github.com/tryterra/api-faqs/blob/main/dashboard/connections/README.md).
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

One Strava app is sufficient across all [Terra environments](https://docs.tryterra.co/health-and-fitness-api/integration-setup/understanding-terra-environments); add the same `client_id`/secret to each dev\_id's Strava connection and use the same callback domain in each.

To speed approval, submit a clear app description plus screenshots of your own product's connection flow and Strava branding (not the Terra dashboard), and mention that you use Terra as your aggregator.

Once approved, your existing setup works as-is with the higher limit.
