Hi there!

Hi bismarck
misty ginkgo
You are using the endpoint secret that the CLI provides?
neat berry
yes, the same as in stripe
neat berry
yes
misty ginkgo
Got it, Express is tricky here and usually messes with the raw body which leads to this issue.
So for instance I do something like: app.use((req, res, next) => { if (req.originalUrl === '/webhook') { next(); // Do nothing with the body because I need it in a raw state. } else { express.json()(req, res, next); // ONLY do express.json() if the received request is NOT a WebHook from Stripe. } });

router.post('/', express.raw({type: 'application/json'}), (request, response) => {
let event = request.body;
// Only verify the event if you have an endpoint secret defined.
// Otherwise use the basic event deserialized with JSON.parse
if (endpointSecret) {
//const signature = request.headers['stripe-signature'];
//testing below - replace line above
const payload = {
id: 'evt_test_webhook',
object: 'event',
};
const payloadString = JSON.stringify(payload, null, 2);
const header = stripe.webhooks.generateTestHeaderString({
payload: payloadString,
endpointSecret,
});
try {
event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(
request.body,
//signature,
header,
endpointSecret
);
} catch (err) {
console.log(`⚠️ Webhook signature verification failed.`, err.message);
return response.sendStatus(400);
}
}
Do you mean this?
misty ginkgo
The issue likely is from your route handler
neat berry
I get the correct error message from my code
console.log(⚠️ Webhook signature verification failed., err.message);
So the router is working fine
misty ginkgo
Right, can you share your Express initialization? Like I shared above?
neat berry
const webhookRouter = require('./routes/webhook')
app.use('/webhook', webhookRouter)
misty ginkgo
Are you setting express.json() anywhere?
neat berry
// express app setup -----------------------
const app = express()
app.use(express.static('public'))
app.use(express.json())
app.use(express.urlencoded({extended: true}))
app.use(cors(corsOptionsDelegate))
yes
misty ginkgo
Yep okay so see my snippet above?
neat berry
yes
misty ginkgo
if (req.originalUrl === '/webhook') {
next(); // Do nothing with the body because I need it in a raw state.
} else {
express.json()(req, res, next); // ONLY do express.json() if the received request is NOT a WebHook from Stripe.
}
});```Try using that in place of your app.use(express.json())
You'll need to adjust that slightly since looks like your endpoint route here is the index
neat berry
Thank you, this allowed the events to listen. I'll try address the new issues.
