Hi there. What have you tried?

Gotcha. https://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqlinfo.library.choosing.php

#

That's not a stripe question though, so we can't help too much

#

You'd need to use a mysql library for php

Ok so I got updating my database to work on a webhook event

#

I have no idea if this is the right way to do it though. I stored the checkout session id in my database. After checkout completed, look in my database for session id and update details.

#

Is this the correct way to do it?

#

Hm so the recommended flow is to listen for events on your webhook endpoint and then use those events to process orders/provision access as needed for the customer

#

A little confused by what you're saying

#

What are you building and what specifically are you doing at the moment?

#

So basically I'm building a service where you must purchase the service in order to use it

#

You can wait for the event and you can also do this during the redirect

#
