Hey, Thanks for replying
Details such as card type
am using Android SDK
so how can i retrieve card type details after payment
jade mango
Do you mean the funding type? Like credit vs debit? Or do you mean the card brand (like mastercard)
silver cradle
Card brands
jade mango
You're trying to get this AFTER payment right? If you have the full Payment Method object you should be able to get it in the Android SDK (https://stripe.dev/stripe-android/payments-core/com.stripe.android.model/-payment-method/-card/index.html) vs if you want to get it server side (https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/object#payment_method_object-card-brand)
silver cradle
sir, we are using this method
and to fetch the details from backend, from where we will get this details
"id": "pm_1LPqSC2eZvKYlo2C0OSzEdB5"
jade mango
So you just have the ID right now? Then you need to retrieve the Payment Method to get the full details (https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/retrieve)
silver cradle
ok, so basically i just need to call this api
jade mango
yup!
jade mango
It would be included in your Payment Intent
jade mango
Let's back up for a minute and start over - what call are you making client-side that you're making which you would like the PaymentMethod from?
silver cradle
we are using payment intent to create payment order
then we pass that response in android sdk
jade mango
Yeah so what are the exact calls you're making client-side?
jade mango
👍 So I assume you want the Payment Method/Card brand as soon as the Payment is complete client-side, right?
silver cradle
yes
jade mango
Gotcha - since you're just using the standard payment sheet integration, I think you're best option would be that after you get confirmation that the payment was complete (by getting PaymentSheetResult.Completed) you make a request to your own server which will then retrieve the Payment Intent and PaymentMethod
The alternative would be to switch to the customer payment sheet integration, but that requires way more integration changes
silver cradle
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-amount
in server end we use this method to create the payment intent
jade mango
Yes, but if you're following the android guide you linked then that's expected - you create the Payment Intent initially, send the client secret back to your Android app, and then use the Payment Sheet to complete payment
Once the Payment Sheet is done accepting payment you need to re-retrieve the Payment Intent + Payment Method to verify the status or get the brand (the alternative is to wait for the webhook event to be triggered and you'll get the intent there, but you said you wanted it client-side so you'll have to retrieve it)
silver cradle
yes after completing payment, we need to fetch card type in backend.
how can we retrieve the Payment Intent + Payment Method
jade mango
In your Android App you'd keep track of which Payment Intent is being paid for and then send that to your server to retrieve the Payment Intent (in that same request you'd expand payment_method to get it back in the same call)
I need to head out but @faint wave is around to answer any other questions
silver cradle
ok
As we are using standard payment sheet, will stripe automatically create payment method
faint wave
Yes. Once the payment details are collected, a payment method is created
silver cradle
so how can we get the detail of that payment method(i mean payment method ID or something)
from which api response we get that?
faint wave
I think that depends on what you need it for. You should already have the Customer ID before they enter their payment details and the Payment Method ID can be retrieved from that object once the customer has provided the payment method details.
Not sure if that adequately answers your question though, so feel free to let me know if I overlooked something.
silver cradle
i think you are refereeing to this right ?
"customer": null,
i mean while creating payment intent we get this variable in its response
"customer": null,
faint wave
What are you using the Payment Method ID for?
silver cradle
to get the card type
of that specific transaction
our motive is to get the card brand type for that particular transaction
faint wave
And do you want it before payment or after payment?
silver cradle
after payment success and need to fetch from backend
faint wave
Ah, in that case I would either (a) listen for the payment_intent.succeeded webhook and look at the Payment Intent object's payment_method field, or (b) retrieve the Payment Intent, using its ID, from the retrieve endpoint: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/retrieve and look at its payment_method field
silver cradle
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/retrieve
but by using this method we are not getting which type card customer used for that transaction
faint wave
Right, you would need to expand the payment_method field to get the card hash from it, which should have all the data you need
faint wave
By default, some API endpoints return just the object ID associated. So in this case, you get the Payment Intent object with a field called payment_method. That field will only contain the ID of the payment method unless you expand it. Expansion essentially makes sure that all the fields/data associated with the payment_method property are returned: https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects
faint wave
payment_method is the thing you're trying to expand right? So pass payment_method
Here's a good example if you're confused: https://stripe.com/docs/expand#how-it-works
silver cradle
/v1/payment_intents/:id
StripeConfiguration.ApiKey = "sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc";
var service = new PaymentIntentService();
service.Get("pi_1DrOsp2eZvKYlo2CGYAdR6IL");
options.AddExpand("payment_method");
so, basically i have to use this api and pass like this to get the card brand type for a specific transaction
faint wave
That code isn't entirely complete, so I can't say if that will or won't work, but you do have to retrieve the Payment Intent via its ID and expand the Payment Intent payment_method hash in order to get the card details.
faint wave
Correct
faint wave
There are a few examples in the docs I sent you. I cannot write the expand call for you unfortunately
silver cradle
ok
