Linking Strava workouts to Wahoo calendar manually

I did a workout in Zwift which appeared on strava as usual but didn’t sync into my Wahoo calendar. Normally it’s fine but on this occasion it didnt. I have downloaded the fit file as per instructiuons and uploaded it onto my phone but for the life of me I can’t find out where it is or how to access it as I want it to go into my calendar as a workout on that day. i tried importing it again just in case I had made an error but it says that the fike already exists? I have tried disconnecting and re-connecting the strava app but that hasnt helped either. Any ideas please? thanks

Are you able to see the workout you did in Zwift in the History Beta tab?

If so, it might just be a sync issue. Sometimes you have to deauthorize and reauthorize the 3rd party syn process. Sometimes it’s just a matter of waiting until the “cloud” issues get resolved on wahoo’s end.

My general approach for these types of things is that if I haven’t made any changes myself and something isn’t working the way it always has, to wait a day or so and see if it hasn’t sorted itself out.

What type of phone do you have by the way, and do you also have access to a computer?

Thanks, my phone is an android Motorola E20 basic phone and yes have a windows pc and laptop.

I’ve been an iOS user for so long I’d have no idea how to help you with android. Im sure google could help you figure out how to connect your phone to your computer to get the file from it but as I say this, I don’t think this is gonna help you with your issue of the ride not showing up in your calendar since you can’t upload it to SYSTM directly anyway.

So, ignore that. Instead, open the Wahoo App on your phone (NOT the SYSTM app), go to the History Tab, tap the plus sign at the top left, tap upload, then tap Upload .fit file. It might open the default location for the file you downloaded.

Thanks, have done that already but where is the file located and how do I get that file to show in my calendar? looked everywhere but at a loss. Why can’t they just make stuff less complicated and actually give full instructions as to what do do once the file has been uploaded, thanks again

So you’ve tapped “upload .fit file” and your file doesn’t show up ?

You could also email Wahoo Support and ask why that workout didn’t get sync’d over and they can probably fix it for you. They can help you verify that the link is working. You can also try deauthorizing and reauthorizing the Strava link in the Wahoo app.
