hi there!
I'm not sure I understand your question. what exactly needs to work with shipping?
fervent berry
We have different shipping rates for different countries. Whereas it costs like 6 Bucks to ship to germany, it may cost 25 to ship to the US. Is it possible to add these rates according to the shipping-address of the customer when using the checkout?
south oxide
you can pass shipping options/rates here in Checkout Session: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-shipping_options
fervent berry
Yeah, but as far as I understand, the customer can select between these options as he whishes?
If we have a scenario, where a customer goes to the checkout and wants us to ship the items to the us, he could still select the german shipping option which costs significantly less. This would lead to us needing to cancel the order.
Is there a way to restrict shipping options to a country?
south oxide
I see what you mean. not sure, give me a few minutes to run some tests.
no I couldn't find a way to do this. one workaround would be to collect the users country before creating the Checkout Session, this way you can directly set the correct shipping rate.
fervent berry
Ok, and I could restrict the country the user can set on the shipping settings using the allowed countries: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-shipping_address_collection-allowed_countries
This could lead to some confusion tho.
But probably the best workarround
Thnaks!
*Thanks!
Could you allso help me understand something about the webhooks?

Could you allso help me understand something about the webhooks?
sure, what's your question?
fervent berry
We're building a headless WooCommerce store. (WooCommerce backend, detached next.js frontend). In WooCommerce we're using the official stripe WooCommerce gateway to receive the webhooks. Unfortunatly ,altrough we receive the webhooks sucessfully, we're not able to get the gateway plugin to make the link between the webhook and the order.
We thought we probably have to do one of two things:
- Add an identifier to the stripe checkout session, so that stripe can return this identifier when firing the webhook, allowing the gateway to make the connection.
- Add an identifier to the WooCommerce Order, so that the gateway is able to identify the Order after receiving the webhook.
WOuld you be able to tell me the correct way, as well as letting me know what identifier to set and with what key?
south oxide
here on Discord we know nothing about WooCommerce gateway, so I can't really help. all I can say is that it's possible to use the metadata field to store some identified on the Checkout Session: https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-metadata

As it is a stripe developed plugin i think, would you be able to tell me where I could get support for that?
south oxide
no this plugin was not made by Stripe. you can try contacting the plugin developer (or woocommerce) directly
