hey

craggy hinge Nov 9, 2023, 2:37 PM

Yeah this is currently being discussed internally about what the expected/intended behavior should be here. Basically the way it works currently is that the receipt_number is generated asynchronously after a charge has succeeded as it is based on when the actual receipt has been sent which is also an async process.

ah alright

craggy hinge Nov 9, 2023, 2:38 PM

#

For now, you'll want to poll the API if receipt_number is null and wait on hearing from Support for info on what is determined in terms of moving forward.

#

It is possible the generation of this receipt_number is moved earlier in the flow so that it is guaranteed upon the Webhook, but right now that isn't the case.

#

so what exaclty would be the best move going forward to get the receipt_number?

#

oh poll the api

craggy hinge Nov 9, 2023, 2:42 PM

#

Yeah I'd just retrieve the Charge every minute or so until it is present

craggy hinge It is possible the generation of this `receipt_number` is moved earlier in the f...

so is this being worked on right now or?

craggy hinge Nov 9, 2023, 2:46 PM

#

It is being discussed right now.

#

As in -- folks internally are discussing what should the behavior be.

#

There is no active work being done at the moment nor can I guarantee this behavior will change.
