Hello! Just to clarify - the piece you're missing here/wondering how to do is " After they finish purchasing on stripe I want a call back to my node backend", correct?

#

Have you looked into webhooks yet? https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks

#

Yes , I am not sure how to pass my user id there ?

#

How will stripe tell me which user paid?

#

It depends on what events/apis you're working with - what are you using? Payment Intents? Checkout? Something else?

#

Idk which one I should use.

#

I think my scenario is pretty simple but couldn't figure out from docs

#

Basicly I want to pass a user id to stripe , then user pays on stripe in any way that I don't care then stripe tells me this user bought this product.

#

You can use any of our payment APIs to do this - you can include your user ID in the metadata, and you'll get that metadata back from the webhook event when payment is successful

#

So really, your first step would be to pick which ever API best suits your needs because any of them will work for the general use case you've laid out

#

What is the simplest payment api ?

slim pawn Nov 18, 2022, 6:32 PM

#

Simplest (in terms of time to integrate) would probably be Checkout (https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=checkout)

#

can I use payment links? how can I pass metadata to there?

#

thanks for the help btw

#

btw

#

Yes, Payment Links should work as well

wanton nacelle Nov 18, 2022, 6:45 PM

#

Is there a doc about passing metadata to payment links ? @slim pawn

#

I couldn't find

slim pawn Nov 18, 2022, 6:46 PM

#

I don't know of any specific docs - you'd just set metadata when you create the Payment Link and it will be automatically copied over to the Checkout Session that gets created (see https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_links/payment_links/create?event_types-payment_intent.payment_failed#create_payment_link-metadata)
