Hi, this is an expected behavior and you won't see this data on the event as it's not an includable parameter. As you mentioned, the customer parameter would need to be expanded, https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/object#checkout_session_object-customer. To attain this data, you'd retrieve the Checkout Session, https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/retrieve and expand the customer parameter, https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects .

Understood. So I can make a call to the Stripe API to request the session data with the customer data, if I understand correctly?

We only truly need the Customer ID in order to correctly associate subscriptions to the correct person from the webhook.

I see, in this case.. if you're only looking for the customer id, you'd get it on the checkout.session.completed event under customer:

Are you not seeing this?

I'm doing requirements, so haven't yet written the code 😉

The sample event on your API docs shows customer as null
