And expires means... yo uget kicked out of the checkout session? its not the same as link expiration, right? cuz i meran if they are already in the checkout session
strong chasm
You'd want to test the behaviour in test mode to see if it matches what you expect
rotund stone
alright, thanks. But is there no info on reading what "expires" means in this siutation?
strong chasm
Ok, you can also explicitly expire an open session: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/expire
And these docs clarify the behaviour to expect:
After it expires, a customer can’t complete a Session and customers loading the Session see a message saying the Session is expired.
rotund stone
and that is from setting the ExpiresAt property?
or a separate manual call like demonstrated?
i.e. do they behave the same?
strong chasm
I expect that would have the same result, with the expiry happening automatically at the specified time
I'd suggest trying this in test mode:
1/ create two sessions with expiry in 30min using expires_at
2/ load one of them now, but leave it open
3/ wait 30min
4/ try completing payment in the session to have open, see how it behaves
5/ try open the link to the other session that should now be expired, see how that behaves
rotund stone
yes ill do that, thanks a lot!
