Hi there!
Can you share the ID (req_xxx) of the failing API request?
https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

Ah never mind I found it req_xaZ2jriQdnMI4z, let me check this...

[languid plank]

?

i want to try the postman method, but not sure what parma / key to bechanged

[hardy bone]

Actually you are sending POST /v1/payment_methods/<string> as a request without any body

Here is the request log in your Stripe dashboard:
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_xaZ2jriQdnMI4z

[languid plank]

yeah , i need sample body. , and even before do i need a paymethod so i can update it

[hardy bone]

You need to fix your request call

[hardy bone]

Bit of a broad question! Is there a specific use case you're trying to account for?

[languid plank]

i forgot my mail /mob , can u able to tell me mine id

i m doing integration for update method

from our salesforce platform

i ll login first with creds

could u pls give me a sample create and update payload, which is working fine

@hardy bone ??

[hardy bone]

What payload are you looking for, what do you want to achieve exactly, not clear for me yet, to give a sample ?

[languid plank]

payment method create and update

{{baseUrl}}/v1/payment_methods

{{baseUrl}}/v1/payment_methods/:payment_method

[hardy bone]

The APIs you are sharing, are these ones:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/create
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/update
In order to use them you need to be PCI compliance because you'll need to collect clear customer card number and store them:
Why you want to do this ? what is the use case? if you need to save PaymentMethod, you should be following this guide instead:
https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-and-reuse?platform=web

[languid plank]

i need to try it on test env, and then make those calls prgrmatically after manual postman call

i alrady went thru the docs

pls give valid payload

sample which is working

@hardy bone ?

[hardy bone]

Please be mindful and stop using the mention, it's a quiet busy, I'm with you just a moment

As I said, I can't give a sample example, if I still don't understand what you want to achieve, rather than doing API call. What do you want to achieve by doing the API call ? what is your business requirement?

[languid plank]

we want to save payment methods and get back the toekn to store in our db

when update paymethod like expiry cvv , we will pass thru all creds whcih we get from client to our platfrom and make a call to ur update method

so its ecommerce feature where saved paymethod will be updated

[hardy bone]

Are you PCI-DSS compliant ?

[languid plank]

yes

[hardy bone]

OK, you can find a payload example on the documentation page:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/create

Choose curl for example and copy past it

Same for the update API:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/update

[languid plank]

cant i get the postman payload

i ve already download ed the collection and there where. im getting the vaoved pinged error

could u pls convert the curl body into a valid postman post json payload

[hardy bone]

You can import curl into postman, following this:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27957943/simulate-a-specific-curl-in-postman

[languid plank]

if i convert it to json i m getting below error

{
"error": {
"message": "Invalid request (check that your POST content type is application/x-www-form-urlencoded). If you have any questions, we can help at https://support.stripe.com/.",
"type": "invalid_request_error"
}
}

👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me catch up.

[languid plank]

@latent oak ?

[latent oak]

I suggest you import the official Stripe Postman Collection you can find here https://www.postman.com/stripedev/workspace/stripe-developers/overview

[languid plank]

already imported as u can see above msgs

[latent oak]

sorry I didn't see that in the thread

as you can see here https://www.postman.com/stripedev/workspace/stripe-developers/request/665823-eac65127-92fe-4a4e-ad0d-f3c0986e493e

you need to use the body as x-www-form-urlencoded and you would pass metada.order_id: xxxx

[languid plank]

ccant we used json here ?

[latent oak]

no, as mentioned here https://stripe.com/docs/api
The Stripe API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs, accepts form-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.

we only accept form-encoded request bodies

[languid plank]

but this one worked fine

how come some work and some donbt

[latent oak]

because that request doesn't take a body

so the body is disregarded

[languid plank]

it is post

and need type of account as manadatory filed

[latent oak]

you've passed it in the url

[languid plank]

infact now the old also working

with json

jut by appending the extra header

how this is supoosed to work ?

[latent oak]

what extra header?

[languid plank]

how can application type can be both at a time ? xml form and the json also

however this is working fine without strike overwrite, if same geader iappend on a request impported out side it shows crossed line

[latent oak]

you changed the Content-Type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded that's why it's working

[languid plank]

but i m still passing json

not xml form

and why the strike is not appearing in stripe managed collectin ?

[latent oak]

Postman is converting your JSON (which is in raw form) to the Content-Type you're specifying

which is form-encoded

[languid plank]

no ! i m not passing xml converted at all

as u see in pic

[latent oak]

I'm not saying you are, I'm saying Postman is converting your JSON to form-encoded

[languid plank]

ok , so when making programatical http call from java using rest client , w e need to pass both types or only xml form

?

[latent oak]

if you're using the stripe-java SDK you don't need to worry about all of this

[languid plank]

header i mean

[latent oak]

you would simply need to use the classes that we provide

[languid plank]

i m using open source http client lib

[latent oak]

and we will take care of the rest

[latent oak]

I would highly recommend not to

[languid plank]

ok , i ll look our current code base to find how its done for old calls

thanks !

[latent oak]

let me know if you need any more help

[languid plank]

sure
