hey there, can you say more about what you're trying to do and what's not behaving as you expect?

[trail harbor]

yes thanks!

So we currently have a page with

express checkout
link authenticaiton
address element
payment element

I see that we have the option to require phone in the address element with “always” but in the payment el. i can just set it as “auto” or “never”, whats the dif here? mainly, what does auto mean when using it in payment element options? i try to always provide one in the billing details default values

our page is dynamic, so some users wont get the address element displayed to them just the payment element , does this affect the “auto” option?

Address Element doesn't depend on the state of the Payment Element as far as I know, so you it might show up twice in some cases if you leave the Payment Element on auto

So you'd just want to check if the Address Element is going to show for a customer, then set the Payment Element phone number collection to never in that case

i see, are there any notes as to when would the phone input be diplayed when set to auto? (on the payment element)

Not really. It depends on if Stripe thinks it will be helpful from a Risk perspective, if I recall correctly

i.e. to mitigate fraud
