Hello! What's your question?
pseudo void
Hello, I want to know if I should only implement the code on the front side or also on the back side
white echo
It depends on what you're integration - which of stripe's products are you using? Checkout? Payment Links? Payment Element?
pseudo void
Or could you send me a documentation? explain it to me well I have searched but I have not understood it at all
white echo
So you haven't decided which of Stripe's products you're using yet
pseudo void
erm I'm using a recurring product that is a subscription
white echo
Yes, but that can be done with any of the things I mentioned - but it sounds like you haven't decided which of those to use yet so let me back up
pseudo void
I already have the subscription payment code implemented, but I must have a button to cancel the subscription
pseudo void
Yes, but that can be done with any of the things I mentioned - but it sounds lik...
ahhh ok
white echo
Ah for making subscription cancellation button, then you have two options:
- you build this yourself (you'd need to write both front end and backend code for this)
- or you use the customer portal (https://stripe.com/docs/no-code/customer-portal) to redirect your customers to a stripe-hosted site where they can cancel the subscription from there
pseudo void
Alright! I understand but that address that you gave me does not lead me to the code that I must implement both on the front and on the back side
white echo
Which of the two options are you doing? Your own button, or the stripe hosted one?
pseudo void
I chose to do the code on both the front and back sides
white echo
Gotcha - then we don't have a guide for doing this. Generally, the flow would be that you have a button on your site (that'd be the frontend code) and when that button is clicked it hits your server which makes the request to stripe tocancel the subscription
pseudo void
ahh well I opt for the option you are telling me
but what would be the steps to follow to implement this button
white echo
I just told you the general flow for what you'd do if you wanted to implement your own button for cancellation - can you clarify what about that didn't make sense?
pseudo void
If I understand the button, I would create it, but what does it point to? I mean, where am I sending the information, I don't know how it works if I didn't see any code of how the flow would be
white echo
Clicking the button would make a request to your own server and your server would make a request to stripe to cancel the subscription (https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/cancel)
pseudo void
is this code correct?
just to know if I would already implement it, it is what I was looking for
white echo
Yes, that doc links to the same API I already sent you https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/cancel
