You can set it per request ^

Or change your account's default

[proud cairn]

Yea I know that, but there's nowhere in the test dashboard to change it globally, and the package thats integrated (before I joined the company) doesnt reference it anywhere

[bright mesa]

You only want to change it for test mode?

[proud cairn]

I want to test it in test mode before moving it to production

I looked in the package we're using, and all I see is that its loading the checkout.js

[bright mesa]

Then the recommended way to do that is to set it in the sdk specifically

[proud cairn]

I was afraid of that 😦

[bright mesa]

You can set it globally for the sdk: https://stripe.com/docs/libraries/set-version#setting-the-api-version

[proud cairn]

I saw, was just hoping for a turnkey instead of a re-write.

If we're loading just the js file remotely, does that automatically go to the next versions?

loading the source code it has a references to /v3 on some calls

[bright mesa]

I think the calls made through stripe.js will be the latest, but API version is mostly relevant for your server-side calls

That's what api version changes behavior for largely

[proud cairn]

Ok. We're just using the checkout part, and no headers set, but we have most calls with 2018-02-28, a few with 2020-08-27, and 0 with 2022-11-15

[bright mesa]

Oh

Just to clarify, are you creating your checkout session server side?

[proud cairn]

Yes, we have a few packages, they put in their name/cc info, and it processes with a succes/fail

we use hosted pages for a few products but they wont be affected

[bright mesa]

Well if you're creating sessions server-side, you'll need to update api version in your server side sdk

[proud cairn]

I would think that anything in the prod environment could be tested in the test environment

We just use the react library

and just checkout, not an IPN or anything

[bright mesa]

Can you share a code snippet of you creating a checkout session?

[proud cairn]

import React from 'react';
import StripeCheckout from 'react-stripe-checkout';
import * as zenApi from '../../generics/zenApi';

const CURRENCY = 'USD';
const PAYMENT_SERVER_URL = process.env.API_URL + '/billings';

const successPayment = data => {
alert('Payment Successful:- ' + data);
};

const errorPayment = data => {
alert('Payment Error:- ' + data);
};

const onToken = (amount, description) => token =>
zenApi.post(PAYMENT_SERVER_URL,
    {
    description,
    source  : token.id,
    currency: CURRENCY,
    amount  : amount
    })
    .then(successPayment)
    .catch(errorPayment);

const Checkout = ({ name, description, amount, pub_key }) =>
<StripeCheckout
    name={name}
    description={description}
    amount={amount}
    stripeKey={pub_key}
    token={onToken(amount, description)}
    currency={CURRENCY}
/>;

export default Checkout;

Thats the only place that loads react-stripe-checkout

[bright mesa]

Oh

[proud cairn]

Which we installed from
https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-stripe-checkout

[bright mesa]

That's a third party library

[proud cairn]

Yea

[bright mesa]

Yeah that's not maintained by Stripe, so we can't support it in here unfortunately. I'm not sure how to set API version within their library

[proud cairn]

So thats why I was asking if we could upgrade the API in the test dashboard and see if it works

[bright mesa]

No only in live mode

Testing api version upgrades are supposed to be done on a per request basis with the sdk

But that's not our sdk

So you will either have to reach out to its developer or look into their open source code to figure out how

[proud cairn]

Yea I wasnt expecting support on that, it was more on the stripe side as far as the test dashboard

[bright mesa]

Right

Which isn't possible in test mode

That message is accurate

[proud cairn]

Right. But shouldnt it be? I would think test would be a mirror of prod, so people can test before deploys

[bright mesa]

You can reach out to support with that feature request if you like: https://support.stripe.com. Currently that's just not how it works. API version is account-wide (both test and live)

[proud cairn]

Ok, will do. Thanks!
