#

@potent olive that's impossible, our API does not support per line-item metadata/details like this. The best option is to store this in your own system/database, or globally on the Checkout Session's own metadata

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:09 PM

#

how can i save it in the metadata?

#

okay

#

i can just add it

#

okk

silver moat Oct 18, 2023, 10:11 PM

#

yes on that line 51 you have one metadata key/value and you can add more

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:11 PM

#

okk

#

do i have to define it somewhere

#

in the stripe dashboard

#

as a string

#

i keep getting the error

#

#

those are just pictures with no real info

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:26 PM

#

no

#

i addedit to my metadata

#

i have 2 types of products

#

one a subscription and another buying loose credits

#

when they buy a subcription, they get some credits

#

they can buy loose credits as well

#

so when the api/webhooks/stripe/route.ts runs

#

and a subscription purchase or credits purchase is made

silver moat Oct 18, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

sorry those are a lot of really short sentences with no info.

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

i need to updae my database

#

but im unable to

silver moat Oct 18, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

Please breathe, take a step back from your own code and focus on your exact question, developer to developer

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:28 PM

#

because the error it gives me is Type 'string | number' is not assignable to type 'number | undefined'. Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'number'.

#

sorry,

#

im trying to explain the scenario

#

const stripeSession = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({ success_url: successUrl, cancel_url: billingUrl, payment_method_types: ['card'], mode: 'subscription', billing_address_collection: 'auto', customer_email: email, line_items: [ { price: stripePriceId, quantity: 1 } ], metadata: { userId: userId, creditsGiven: creditsGiven } })

#

here, can i just automatically add an attr to metadata

#

or do i need to se its type somewhere, like the stripe dashboard

silver moat Oct 18, 2023, 10:29 PM

#

everything inside metadata is always a string

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:29 PM

#

ohh

#

but i need to pass an integer

#

the number of credits they get from buying the subscription

#

how can i do that

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 10:31 PM

#

👋 hopping in here - can you try casting your integer to a string and seeing if that works?

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 10:31 PM

#

lemme try

#

it worked!

#

thank you!

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 10:43 PM

#

👍

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:14 PM

#

guys

#

@vale sorrel

#

it didnt work

#

i tried variants of typecasting

#

its a string im trying to cast as an integer

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:15 PM

#

What specifically isn't working? Didn'tyou say it was working before?

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

i made a mistake in calculating
thinking the credit Count increased after buying a subscripion

#

but it isnt

#

just need help with one thing here

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:18 PM

#

What does that have to do with casting a string to an integer?

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:18 PM

#

because the casting isnt happening

#

i think im doing it wrong
I tried it in a couple of ways

#

one way

#

another way

#

but when i try these methods normally, they are able to cast a string to int

#

but not in here

#

I'm using typescript and nextjs if it matters

#

you mustve typecast metadata to integer before

#

is this how you do it

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:20 PM

#

What debugging have you done so far? Have you tried logging session1.metadata.creditsGiven to see what value is there

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:34 PM

#

#

in the console log
the number is correct

#

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:38 PM

#

And what's the error you get when you try and cast it?

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:39 PM

#

no error
It needs to increase the creditCount attr of the user by the amount

#

but it doesnt

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:40 PM

#

Did you log incrementvalue and confirm that's what you expect?

potent olive Oct 18, 2023, 11:40 PM

#

no

#

lemme do that

vale sorrel Oct 18, 2023, 11:54 PM

#

What value did you get?

hidden cobaltBOT Oct 18, 2023, 11:59 PM

#

potent olive Oct 19, 2023, 12:09 AM

#

it doesnt come up on either console

quiet hedge Oct 19, 2023, 12:16 AM

#

Let's be clear. I see you have 2 condition on L69 and L74. You would want to console.log to see the exact value and type you got there first, before thinking of increment the value

#

It's more of js casting and debug here

potent olive Oct 19, 2023, 12:50 AM

#

I tried a bunch of things

#

nothing gets logged

#

im checking both the console in the terminal

#

and in the chrome dev tools

#

im just confused at this point

#

I'm shot as to why it isnt updating the creditCount

#

it updates in in the scenario of a credit purchase, but not when they buy a subscription

quiet hedge Oct 19, 2023, 12:55 AM

#

You need to check your terminal console, when you run your app

#

checking incrementValue on both condition, and check its typeof

potent olive Oct 19, 2023, 12:59 AM

#

does this look right to you

#

the debug statements
