Hi there. Let's chat in here

#

Oh, hey

#

I was wondering if could get some tips from any stripe dev or someone else about one of the endpoints

high cedar Mar 31, 2023, 2:50 PM

#

What's your question?

undone holly Mar 31, 2023, 2:52 PM

#

In the payment intent endpoint, if i try to process a 3DS authorized cc I also need to send a return_url field in the endpoint, which is good for us

#

But, when stripe redirects back to my application, it doesnt send us the payment status

#

This info is not in the query or in the body of the req

#

I was wondering if there are any ways to get the payment status through this url

#

Because I can't show a success page or fail page if I don't know what actually happened after the authentication

#

It's been a while since I looked at this, but I believe we send some query params. Can you check to see what's sent in the url?

#

sure

#

Ah we list them here: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment?platform=web&ui=elements#web-submit-payment

Accept a payment

Securely accept payments online.

#

Payment intent is one of them

#

and client secret

#

If you scroll down in that section of the docs, you can see how to retrieve the PI with the client secret and inspect the status

#

Yes, I thought about that possibility

#

But I was wondering if there is no other way

high cedar Mar 31, 2023, 3:02 PM

#

Nope that's it

undone holly Mar 31, 2023, 3:02 PM

#

I see

#

Okay

#

Got it

#

Can you help me with something else?

high cedar Mar 31, 2023, 3:02 PM

#

Sure. What is it?

undone holly Mar 31, 2023, 3:02 PM

#

I have another question about customer Ids

#

So a little bit of context

#

We are a payment microsservice using stripe as payment provider

#

That being said we don't have customer data in our dbs. We have only payment data

#

So for certain payments(Bank transfer for example) we are creating empty customerIds only to process the payment intent and not storing this info during the process

#

If customer wants to create a new transaction with bank transfer for example, we just create another customerId and generate a new payment intent with that new empty customerId

#

On our side this doesnt seem like a big problem, since we can track customer data across other services

#

But we wonder if stripe has any advices against that

#

stripe = stripe developers

high cedar Mar 31, 2023, 3:07 PM

#

That's fine, but why not just store the customer id?

undone holly Mar 31, 2023, 3:08 PM

#

We are not structured to operate with that kind of info. We are using some other payment providers and stripe would be the only one using this

#

Also we understood that in a conceptual level, it wouldn't make sense to keep an information about the customer in a payment document(Which is essentially the only collection we have)

#

But, thank you, man

#

You guys are awesome
