Not sure I understand the question. Can you elaborate?

[dapper notch]

I want to auto redirect after a customer update/cancel any plan in billing portal , i am using stripe api

[spice tusk]

If you specify redirect as the after_completion type: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/sessions/create#create_portal_session-flow_data-after_completion-type then you can also specify a return url to redirect to here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/sessions/create#create_portal_session-flow_data-after_completion-redirect-return_url

[dapper notch]

Can you send me pseudo code for this schenario?

[spice tusk]

What language are you using?

What have you tried? The docs there show how to pass the param

[dapper notch]

Node js

using stripe library

[spice tusk]

What have you tried? I can't write your code for you. The docs above show how to pass it

If you try something and it's not working, I can help debug

showing flow data parameter missing

[spice tusk]

Can you send the code snippet you're using? And the request id?

[dapper notch]

const portalSession = await stripe.billingPortal.sessions.create({
customer: customer,
return_url: redirect_uri,
flow_data: {
after_completion: {
type: "redirect",
redirect: {
return_url: redirect_uri,
},
},
},
});

[spice tusk]

Ok can you share the request id so I can look at what the error is? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

The error message tells you what you need:
Missing required param: flow_data[type].

You didn't pass this required param: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/sessions/create#create_portal_session-flow_data-type

[dapper notch]

I understood the type paramter , in my case i want to redirect both for subscription cancel/update , what can i do ?

[spice tusk]

Oh if you want a regular portal session, not a deep link to a specific flow: https://stripe.com/docs/customer-management/portal-deep-links, then don't pass flow_data at all. The regular return_url should be all you need: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/sessions/create#create_portal_session-return_url

flow_data is for redirecting your customer to the portal to complete a specific action
