👋 happy to help
my colleague shared https://stripe.com/docs/issuing/cards/pin-management#encrypting-pins
severe coyote
yes, this is through the server. We were wondering if there is another way like Stripe Elements as you can reveal the card using Stripe Elements
lavish fulcrum
https://stripe.com/docs/issuing/cards/pin-management#using-issuing-elements this is not through the server though
severe coyote
How so ? You have to contact the Card API using the secret Key, which cannot be stored in the frontend
lavish fulcrum
have you have the chance to read the doc we sent you?

Changing a PIN with the Cards API
You can change the PIN for an issued card using the Card Update API. However, depending on the region the card is used in, the new PIN might not be immediately usable. See Online and offline PINs for further guidance.You can also change a card’s PIN at an ATM (if supported by ATMs in your region). PIN changes at an ATM are instantaneous.
To change the PIN for a given card using the API, pass it in encrypted form as the pin.encrypted_number parameter to the Update Card API method:
See Encrypting PINs for more information about how to encrypt a PIN before passing it to the Stripe API or your own servers.
Note
When changing a card’s PIN in a request to the Update Card API method, the response to the update request won’t return the PIN (in either encrypted or plain-text form).
Yes I did, and it explains that we must use the Card Update API to change the PIN
lavish fulcrum
you want to view or change the PIN?
severe coyote
Change the PIN, it was in my question 🙂
lavish fulcrum
sorry my bad I was viewing the public docs without seeing the restricted view (that you have access to)
lavish fulcrum
there are some restricted sections
severe coyote
So the only way to update the PIN is to go through the API ?
lavish fulcrum
that depends on whether we have enabled a feature or not for you
severe coyote
Ok 🙂
severe coyote
Ok, thank you
