Hi there, is it a question about API key rolling? https://stripe.com/docs/keys#rolling-keys

API keys

Use API keys to authenticate API requests.

#

no .

#

basically ..we have two org (one for US and one for Canada)

#

at run time from the body we are getting the the countrycode and assigning the corresponding keys

#

I still struggle to understand you

#

Is there a request ID that I can take a look at?

distant depot Jul 18, 2023, 7:31 AM

#

no ..
let me ask again

#

we have two different org (one for US and one for Canada)
we are using stripe npm package to connect with stripe
const stripe = require('stripe')(process.env.stripe_key);
this key we are updating at run time if request is from canada or US
problem : we are not able to change this key at runtime (we are setting different keys but it is always taking the key which has assigned in beggining)

OK, so the question is to change the API key in runtime, am I right?

distant depot Jul 18, 2023, 7:36 AM

#

yes

severe tree Jul 18, 2023, 7:36 AM

#

OK

#

You just need to call stripe = require('stripe')(NEW_API_KEY) to create a new instance of stripe

distant depot Jul 18, 2023, 7:38 AM

#

this we are doing const stripe = require('stripe')(process.env.stripe_key);

#

on the top of js file

#

You should use let instead. You can't re-assign a const variable

#

So it's something like

let stripe = require('stripe')(INITIAL_KEY)

// when you change to another account
stripe  = require('stripe')(NEW_API_KEY)

Thanks ... we could have tried it
