Hello
You are using Stripe Checkout here?
And you are asking about including the customer's phone number on the Checkout page?
short monolith
I have the phone number , its collected in the app. I wanted to update the phone number to the customer that is created in the Checkout/sessions
Like customer_update[name] will update name in the api for checkout/sessions but is there one for phonenumber
young spruce
Gotcha, you can't prefill a phone number into the Checkout Session itself
You can just go ahead and include the phone number on the Customer object if you want but it won't be displayed in the UI
short monolith
can i update the customer object during the api call to checkout/sessions like i can update the customers name?
young spruce
You can't update the customer's name in the Checkout Session creation request?
But no, you would do it in a separate request when you create or update the Customer
short monolith
that is for checkout session correct. See how update customer has option for name , address
i was wanting phone number also
young spruce
Ah that is for the customer to update their name in the Session itself.
But no, there isn't similar for phone number
You can enable phone_number_collection: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-phone_number_collection
But that won't update the one you already collected
short monolith
ahh, Thanks!
