hello Pompey

thank you for ur time

my issue is, the documentation says if I want to cancel a paymentIntent, I can pass a parameter to this req:

const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.cancel(
  'pi_3LwzBtHuKaBzlxWh1tFVx0n3'
);```

but how come

how would that be

[empty wharf]

Hello, looks like you should just be able to pass it like a normal parameter, so:

  'pi_3LwzBtHuKaBzlxWh1tFVx0n3',
  cancelation_reason='duplicate;
);```
https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/cancel#cancel_payment_intent-cancellation_reason

[shut blaze]

only a comma

so theres no need for an object there

cause it gives me an error

or is it:

.cancel({ intent_id: intent_id, cancelation_reason='duplicate'}
)

[empty wharf]

Whoops my syntax is off. I think you need to use something like this:

  'pi_3LwzBtHuKaBzlxWh1tFVx0n3',
  {cancelation_reason: 'duplicate'}
);```

ye looks like it is

Thank you

[empty wharf]

Glad that worked!

[shut blaze]

maybe the documentation should say that

its missing

[empty wharf]

Also quick question: how do you get syntax highlighting on your code blocks here?

We do show that syntax for other calls https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/update

[shut blaze]

you use ```

and then

the lang syntax

like ```js codehere

I didnt notice

I was lost xd

I think this is mostly a result of us trying to use as simple an example as possible for the cancel call. Will give feedback that it could be clearer there though

And thank you! Very helpful, that will make my messages here look clearer

[shut blaze]

yeah I guess on the post request

could be nice

having the parameter there

ur welcome

cya and thanks
