Activities are not triggering any challenges

Hi.
I have an old, but yet powerfull, Forerunner 410. For some reason my activities are not triggering challenges anymore, and always work on the past. Actually some was calculating but sudenly all of them went to 0km and don't increase anymore. I tried quit and enter challenges again and tried to edit some activities to check if would count, but no success.
Any hints on what I have to do? (I don't use the app, only browser version)
Thanks.

  • Could you post a link to an activity that should count for a challenge and make it public so we can take a look at it?

  • Sure.

    This is one example:
    [https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/6214083162]


    And if you take a look at my profile you will see a lot of other activities that should work with challenges.

  • That one should work for cycling challenges. If you have joined February Joy Rides you can go to this URL: connect.garmin.com/.../5C2EED497AD44B4F9F51CE64EA19973A

    Links are not working good in this version of the forum. Maybe this link works: LINK (nope, the insert link function is not working at all)

    Here is the URL divided into several parts: https://connect.garmin.com/ modern/ proxy/ badgechallenge-service/ badgeChallenge/ 5C2EED497AD44B4F9F51CE64EA19973A
    Note that the spaces must be removed for it to work.

    Or here might be the solution. I shortened the URL: https://bit.ly/2Oapldz

    Could you post what you see? It should be something like:

    {"uuid":"5C2EED497AD44B4F9F51CE64EA19973A","badgeChallengeName":"February Joy Rides","challengeCategoryId":2,"badgeChallengeStatusId":2,"startDate":"2021-02-01T00:00:00.0","endDate":"2021-02-28T23:59:59.0","createDate":"2021-01-25T11:12:00.247","updateDate":"2021-01-25T11:12:00.247","badgeId":1275,"badgeKey":"challenge_total_cycle_250k_2021_02","badgePoints":2,"badgeUnitId":1,"badgeProgressValue":93265.75,"badgeEarnedDate":null,"badgeTargetValue":250000.0,"badgeTypeIds":[4,6],"userJoined":true,"challengeCategoryImageId":2}

  • Challenges always worked fine for me, but suddenly stoped working.
    I joined for riding: 505mi on three months, 250K on february. For running: 505K and 50mi. All are in 0km (or mile) and I have lots of activities that would work on these.
    Looks like a bug. I use Strava and my activities are auto uploaded; things are working fine on Strava and I'm getting lots of badges.

    Yes, I see this line you posted, but I don't really know what to do next.

  • You click the link: https://bit.ly/2Oapldz

    Then post what you see.

  • You could try leaving the Challenge, and re-joining it. If it does not help, then enter all the activities that did not get counted, and edit & save them (just add a note, the effort, a calorie) or just change the title - it should get re-parsed, and counted.

  • Hi.
    Like I posted on the first message, I tried these but no success. I have read those methods on other posts and already tried. Nothing happens.

  • Thanks. It is all good.

    What you experience sounded like you used Zwift. Garmin recently made some changes which made Zwift rides and run to not count for challenges so if you got some of those that explains some of the issue, but the ride you linked should count so you shouldn't have zero progress.

    I would still try what you have done again. Leave the challenge February Joy Rides. Join it again. Then make a change to the ride that you linked. Not to any Zwift rides if you have any of those since that wouldn't have any effect.

  • What you experience sounded like you used Zwift

    Hm, the activity https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/6214083162 does not look like a Zwift activity. Not sure about others, but that one should get counted
