Hi 👋 our Postman collection can be found here, but I don't know offhand if it has any examples using expand:

I have Postman collection but expand is not working for Checkout session.

Everything else is working with Postman.

[shy crest]

Do you have an example of a request you made where it isn't working that I could take a closer look at?

[lost fox]

Let me send another request

https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_zClmasGviCTp4y?t=1689946703"

Above is the error log, you will see an extra double quote "" around ['total_details.breakdown'] and that is the reason we get this error message "Invalid array"

[shy crest]

Ah, looks like it's not being provided correctly for the way it's being broken down.

Try passing expand[] as the parameter name and total_details.breakdown as the value.

I'm pretty sure you'll want to use the cURL approach, rather than the syntaxes used when working with one of our libraries:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects?lang=curl

{
"error": {
"message": "This property cannot be expanded (['total_details).",
"request_log_url": "https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_HsPwXqjR5jC7rZ?t=1689946869",
"type": "invalid_request_error"
}
}

Can you grab a screenshot of how you structured that parameter in postman?

[shy crest]

Thank you, try getting rid of the brackets and quotes from the value.

From my test account:

[lost fox]

ok

Works now. How can I add multiple object to exapand e.g., payment_intent and total_details.breakdown

[shy crest]

You put multiple lines for expand[]. Raw requests don't handle nested data structures, so arrays need to be destructured into a parameter/value pair for each value in the array you want to send.

[lost fox]

So it will will be multiple lines of expand command in postmand. Am I correct?

[shy crest]

Yes

Thank you. You save my day today.

Any time! Glad I could help!
