@balmy dagger that property is specifically the email address used to send an email receipt.

#

ah okay using stripes email service I assume

steep hollow Oct 31, 2023, 11:27 PM

#

I don't really get the rest of your wording. We don't have any concept of an "order" and we also do not collect an email address by default

#

I am using a Stripe element which contains an email field

#

LinkAuthenticationElement

steep hollow Oct 31, 2023, 11:28 PM

#

I'm sorry, we have numerous separate elements. Can I ask you to be a lot more specific

#

okay thanks, so that's specific to Link, for the end-customer to sign up for Link.

#

Do you have an example PaymentIntent id for me to look at?

#

pi_3O7RERBMpzg4WqwK4tcW2RFK

#

Maybe LinkElement is the wrong thing to be using then, semantically

#

but I do want to gather the users email at checkout

#

the pi above is done in test mode

#

I figured it out I think

#

if I query ch_3O7RERBMpzg4WqwK4FfkVbdC

#

which is the latest charge

#

it has an email field that is populated correctly

#

Yeah if you look at this request you can see where the email is passed https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_KNEUKsuPLUJESn
It's part of the PaymentMethod, so when you get the PaymentIntent's Event it will have the pm_123 and you can retrieve that, or use the one on the Charge which is a snapshot of it

balmy dagger Oct 31, 2023, 11:33 PM

#

ah okay payment method is the better option

steep hollow Oct 31, 2023, 11:33 PM

#

both work fine really

balmy dagger Oct 31, 2023, 11:33 PM

#

true, charge object just has more info

#

but okay got it

#

Although it would be nice if you guys include it with the payment intent object

#

maybe there are reasons you can't, idk

#

I believe your checkout objects have an email associated with them

#

guess it's because a custom checkout flow may not have an email associated with it

steep hollow Oct 31, 2023, 11:36 PM

#

yeah and a PaymentIntent is a state machine of payment attempts so it's not really the right place to put "an email" since there isn't one, there's an email for other objects

balmy dagger Oct 31, 2023, 11:36 PM

#

okay gotcha

#

thanks for the help

steep hollow Oct 31, 2023, 11:36 PM

#

sure thing 🙂

balmy dagger Oct 31, 2023, 11:36 PM

#

no further questions, have a nice day 🙂
