Hello

Hi Bismarck

[cedar stone]

What do you mean by "went through successfully"?

[grim kayak]

So I have this code that comes in the quick setup with Stripe inside the handleSubmit function

const { error } = await stripe.confirmPayment({
elements,
redirect: "if_required",
confirmParams: {
// Make sure to change this to your payment completion page
return_url: windowLocation,
receipt_email: emailAddress,
},
});

    if (error.type === "card_error" || error.type === "validation_error") {
        showMessage(error.message);
    } else {
        showMessage("An unexpected error occurred.");
    }

And I noticed that its checking the error.type and the if else statement only contains an error check - what is a way for me to check if the payment went through succesfully so I can include a javascript snippet of code inside that success statement to do things that need to be done on my end of things

[cedar stone]

It shouldn't have else { showMessage("An unexpected error occurred."); }

What docs do you see that in?

If it reaches your else block then the promise successfully resolved without an error and you would show a success

If you want to really make sure, then you can retrieve the PaymentIntent in that else block using: https://stripe.com/docs/js/payment_intents/retrieve_payment_intent

Then you can see the status of the PaymentIntent to ensure it is succeeded

https://stripe.com/docs/payments/quickstart

Line 58-62 on the checkout.js file

Oh yikes

Well, to be fair, this assumes you don't use redirect: if_required

So that would be accurate in that case since you would only reach that code if there was an unexpected error.

So actually that is technically correct

But confusing

But yeah, since you aren't redirecting by defeault, you should just retrieve the PaymentIntent in that block like I mentioned above

[grim kayak]

Hmm... still a little confused to be honest

    elements,
    redirect: "if_required",
    confirmParams: {
        return_url: windowLocation,
        receipt_email: emailAddress,
    },
});

if (error) {
    // There was an error during payment confirmation
    if (error.type === "card_error" || error.type === "validation_error") {
        showMessage(error.message);
    } else {
        showMessage("An unexpected error occurred.");
    }
} else if (paymentIntent && paymentIntent.status === "succeeded") {
    // Payment was successful
    showMessage("Payment succeeded!");
} else {
    // Handle other cases if needed
    showMessage("An unexpected result occurred.");
}```

Does that look right?

[cedar stone]

Ah right I forgot we do supply the paymentIntent if the promise resolves successfully

So you don't even need to retrieve it

Yep that looks good to me

I'd test it out!

[grim kayak]

But wait - quick question

since I am using payment holds

it will not be succeeded unless its captured correct?

[cedar stone]

Ah yes, so you want status === 'requires_capture'

[grim kayak]

Ahh okay thank you.
