Hey, sorry let's continue here

#

Hey!

#

I was able to test my webhooks via stripe cli

#

as described here: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks

Use incoming webhooks to get real-time updates

Listen for events on your Stripe account so your integration can automatically trigger reactions.

#

And that works. But when i turn my CLI off and I am in localhost, it will still ping the live webhook on mywebsite.com

#

I set up some webhooks online in the dashboard.
This part is where you can choose mode

dusk cedar Sep 21, 2022, 7:52 AM

#

ok i will have a look now

ivory echo Sep 21, 2022, 7:52 AM

#

If you create that webhook in Dashboard for Test mode, then any action occurred in your Test mode will send events to that endpoint

#

Well you can have different endpoints for Test mode and Live mode too

#

If i click

#

"Add an Endpoint"

#

I get this:

#

#

When I click "test in a local environment", i get the instructions for using stripe cli

#

When you click, you see a toggle on right hand upper corner

#

yes, i am in test mode the whole time

#

but i want to test on localhost without triggering my staging enviroment webhooks

#

when i am on localhost, i would like to only to fire to localhost:port/my-webhook

#

but right now its firing to the live webhook that i have configured in test mode

#

do you know what i mean?

ivory echo Sep 21, 2022, 7:56 AM

#

Yes, but it doesn't make sense to have "live webhook that i have configured in test mode"

#

Test mode is test mode and you shouldn't consider anything in it to be "live"

dusk cedar Sep 21, 2022, 7:56 AM

#

ok, thats badly phrased

#

you're right about that./

ivory echo Sep 21, 2022, 7:57 AM

#

I think you want test / staging / live endpoints

dusk cedar Sep 21, 2022, 7:57 AM

#

yes correct

#

lets say it like this: when i work on localhost, I change code in my webhooks all the time, so I dont deploy constantly, as I am still figuring things out. However, right now it will ping both my localhost webhooks (when I have stripe cli activated) but also my staging webhooks

#

and thats very confusing, i would like to test everything in localhost first, then deploy to staging and test the webhooks set up on stripe in test mode

#

so i would like to isolate these two cases

#

and then there is production, where I only deploy to once staging seems fine.

#

is this possible with stripe, to separate dev enviroment / staging / production?

ivory echo Sep 21, 2022, 8:01 AM

#

Unfortunately we don't have such a classification. You can consider temporarily pause/disable the staging endpoint (which is registered on your Test mode)

dusk cedar Sep 21, 2022, 8:02 AM

#

ok fair enough, i can just disable them while working on local

#

thanks a lot!

ivory echo Sep 21, 2022, 8:03 AM

#

np and good luck!
