Hi! Let me help you with this.

#

I'm using the stripe invoice sessions and can't really figure out where can I find the url to the receipt

patent bane Dec 22, 2022, 1:32 PM

#

What do you mean by "invoice sessions"? What api are you using?

storm glade Dec 22, 2022, 1:33 PM

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions

Stripe API reference – Checkout Sessions – curl

Complete reference documentation for the Stripe API. Includes code snippets and examples for our Python, Java, PHP, Node.js, Go, Ruby, and .NET libraries.

#

I meant checkout sessions my bad, sorry

#

Sorry for late reply, checking now.

#

The Charge object has a receipt_url property: https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/object#charge_object-receipt_url
You can get it via CheckoutSession.payment_intent.latest_charge.receipt_url

You can share it with the customer, however you will not be able to download a PDF.

#

You can use Invoicing, then you can download Invoice PDF via invoice_pdf: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-invoice_pdf

#

so there is no api to download through the checkout session?

patent bane Dec 22, 2022, 1:57 PM

#

No

#

is customer required when creating the invoice?

#

and I can't inline items in the invoice

#

invoice_pdf
but invoice pdf is not a receipt pdf isn't it?

Hello 👋
Stepping in as vanya needs to step away soon
If you're trying to charge the customer automatically once invoiced then yes its required

storm glade Dec 22, 2022, 2:05 PM

#

it's just a pdf of the invoice

timid dagger Dec 22, 2022, 2:05 PM

#

If you're sending the invoice for payment then you don't technically need a customer

storm glade Dec 22, 2022, 2:08 PM

#

so how could I get a receipt then?

#

I mean I could obtain it with sessions but for that I need to directly visit the page and download it

timid dagger Dec 22, 2022, 2:10 PM

#

You can turn on customer emails for successful payments via the dashboard
https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/emails

Which should send out the receipt to your customers

#

As far as I know, there isn't a way to download the PDF and then send it

storm glade Dec 22, 2022, 2:13 PM

#

well my business wants to have the pdf on our side as well, emails wont do, sorry :/

#

If I parse the page for the link am I going to violate the service agreement?

timid dagger Dec 22, 2022, 2:16 PM

#

I don't know if its against the policies
You may want to talk to our support team about that, our team on discord won't know about service agreements as such!
