In the PaymentItent object, there's an "object" field with "payment_intent"
In the webhook event, most of the data is inside the "object" array
shy glacier
yes and it has the same shape
see https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks/quickstart it has an end to end example for all languages including how to access the underlying object from the Event's JSON
late flame
Checking that out
Well, that's more than I can read at this minute lol
But I'm looking at the stored JSON for the webhook event - it has a specific event ID that is obviously not a part of the PaymentIntent object
shy glacier
Yes the Event is an API resource: https://docs.stripe.com/api/events/object and it has a Retrieve API https://docs.stripe.com/api/events/retrieve with its own id evt_123
late flame
Is what you're trying to say that the event's data->object is the same thing as the Payment Intent object?
shy glacier
yes
late flame
Okay... so if I'm accessing the event data, I have to go through that event "object" but if I've got the Payment Intent object, I'm already inside of it
I think that makes sense
One follow-up question
shy glacier
sure thing!
late flame
If I get a pending payment and store the webhook event JSON, can I use the same Payment Intent ID to check and tell me whether the payment intent succeeds?
I know I'll get another webhook event, but I'm just trying to understand the relationship
Still there?
shy glacier
you too!

I've got one more question (not directly related) 🙂
When I use the PaymentIntent API to create a PI, how do I get the ID of the PI I just created?
I'm in PHP and my code looks like this:
PaymentIntent::create([
'amount' => $this->amount * 100,
'currency' => 'usd',
'customer' => $method->user->stripe_id,
'payment_method' => $method->payment_method_id,
'payment_method_types' => ['card', 'us_bank_account'],
'return_url' => route('thankyou'),
'off_session' => true,
'confirm' => true,
'receipt_email' => $method->user->email,
'metadata' => [
'payment_id' => $this->id,
'amount' => $this->amount,
],
]);
shy glacier
you need to store the response of that call (all our calls really) in a variable: $paymentIntent = PaymentIntent::create([ .... ]); and then you can do $paymentIntent->id or $paymentIntent->amount, etc.
