HI 👋

Unfortunately we cannot help much with Dashboard configuration here, as we are focused on helping developers code integrations with our APIs. I don't think you can configure this but you should reach out to Support to confirm: https://support.stripe.com/contact

Ok, thanks. I'll try that. I was asking here in case it was something I had to set when creating the customer from my web app code, like some field in the params when I call stripe.customer.create({...})

Customer creation does not configure how the dashboard displays the cutomer but I can understand that desire.

#

I can submit that as a feature request and if you want to be kept informed you can write in to support to ask about it

Alright. Already contacted support in case they can help me from the Dashboard side. I thought maybe it was something I had to set in my code since the column displays the customer email, but when the customer has no associated email, it displays the customer's name. I figured the logic to decide what to display in the column was based in checking whether or not some fields (checked according to their priority) for the customer had any data, and that by setting a specific field (which I couldn't find), I could get the column to show what I want.

#

For example the docs say this about the description field in the params of the create method: "An arbitrary string that you can attach to a customer object. It is displayed alongside the customer in the dashboard"

#

That lead me to think it was something I could set from my code

#

Anyways, thanks for the help
