So you can't update the API version as far as I know. You would need to create a new Webhook endpoint if you want to use a different version

how can I do it?

hmm yeah so how can I handle each event in this case? I mean how can I write code inside each event? I think the API gives enabled_events parameter but its just as names right but no option to write the code inside each event?

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 4:59 PM

#

What do you mean "write the code in each event"? Events are Stripe objects that contain nested Stripe objects and they get sent to a webhook endpoint. There's no "writing code" in an Event

#

no, I mean say suppose I have checkout.session.completed event and I want to write fulfilment logic in there, to update my database saying that the amount is paid by a particular user

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 5:04 PM

#

You would include that in the handler you write which listens for that particular event: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks

Use incoming webhooks to get real-time updates

Listen for events on your Stripe account so your integration can automatically trigger reactions.

Oh I think now I got the complete picture...

So, say Stripe releases a new version and I see that it automatically gets updated to my dashboard in contrast to this statement here, "When a breaking change is introduced to the Stripe API, a new dated version is released. To avoid breaking your code, we don’t change your version until you’re ready to upgrade." in https://stripe.com/docs/upgrades

#

Am i missing on something? I actually have events/logs from two versions, 2022-08-01 version also, in my dashboard and I don't remember upgrading it to the current version manually...

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 5:16 PM

#

So there are 2 things at play here:
(1) your Account's default API version, and
(2) your webhook endpoint's API version

#

Which one are you talking about?

distant bison Mar 9, 2023, 5:18 PM

#

Sorry but both of them..

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 5:19 PM

#

What problem are you hoping to solve? I don't understand what you're asking

distant bison Mar 9, 2023, 5:24 PM

#

Please let me know if I get any notification on the dashboard or to the email asking me that there is a new version released and if I want to upgrade?

ok, thank you

#

one last question please.. when going live, do my products, payment links, webhooks, branding etc be still available or do I need to create them again?

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 5:47 PM

#

As long as your live mode settings and you test mode setting match, they will be the same

distant bison Mar 9, 2023, 5:58 PM

#

don't mind but what do you mean by settings? I understood that Branding, sending emails should be toggled in settings and they remain in live mode too. What about payment links, products and webhooks?

floral dove Mar 9, 2023, 6:00 PM

#

Many of these things have live mode and test mode settings. I would suggest toggling between test and live modes to see how/if they change.

From the code/API side, the only difference is what API keys you use.
