Hello 👋
I'm not sure if there's a way to add in an extension 😦 Let me double check

yeah don't think there's a workaround here unfortunately 😦

I must be missing something? What use is the ability to download files if you can't tell what format it is or you can't open it?

[ocean raft]

ah sorry my bad

there's a way to know the type (extension) of the file but I don't know how that'd work with the browser

When you retrieve the file link, you can expand the file parameter
https://stripe.com/docs/api/file_links/object#file_link_object-file

The file object should have a type listed
https://stripe.com/docs/api/files/object#file_object-type

I see

Thanks

Kinda sucks though - as you need a whole new API request just to get this

If I remember correctly, you can pass the expand field when you create the file link so that the response would include the file object

not 100% sure as I haven't tried it myself

[cerulean pumice]

i tried that already, unless i'm doing it wrong

Fatal error: Uncaught Stripe\Exception\InvalidArgumentException: Got unexpected keys in options array: expand

[ocean raft]

ah, can you share the snippet?

[cerulean pumice]

Think I worked it out

Looks like you can expand to include the file object

But I've just tried it in live mode, and the file download includes the extension when the browser goes to save it

It may just be that the test files created by Stripe identity in test mode have that issue

Though I can see they are png's from the file header and also the type in the file object
