Hello

#

Taking a look

#

Do you have an example request after you used that login command?

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:35 PM

#

No as I stopped as soon as I see I was'nt using my key.
Do you want that I do a dummy command ?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:35 PM

#

Yeah can you test again

#

And then share the request ID?

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:38 PM

#

Hmm I just done a stripe trigger customer.subscription.deleted

#

and the last API request has this ID sub_1PDSdtFvrVE1j92WGWMvsol8

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

Hmm yeah I'm seeing the same thing. Okay one moment.

#

Ah

#

It is a one-off request basis

#

Not a config

#

So you don't run it on login

#

You would do stripe trigger customer.subscription.deleted --api-key sk_test_123

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:42 PM

#

🤔 so it's the same for stripe listen ? It does not suffice to make stripe login --api-key ... we need to specify this parameter every time?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:43 PM

#

Yes see: https://docs.stripe.com/cli/api_keys

#

Ah wait you may be able to set it as an environment variable

#

Based on that

#

Ah also I think you may need to pass your account ID

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:44 PM

#

I believed this override for a certain amount of time...not just for one command.

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:45 PM

#

https://docs.stripe.com/cli/flags#flags-api_key

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:46 PM

#

where do I put this "account ID" ...in $HOME/.config/stripe/config.toml ?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:46 PM

#

Let me check

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:47 PM

#

(I do not even know yet how to write this configuration file too 🤔 )

#

ok the file seems simple

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:47 PM

#

You would set this via https://docs.stripe.com/cli/config

#

Using --set

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:48 PM

#

yep I know 🙂

#

how can I get the account ID and I do not know the matching key name in this file

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:54 PM

#

Okay apologies I made this really confusing

#

The easiest way to handle this is to do stripe config --list to see your current config

#

Then if you want to override globally you can do stripe config --set test_mode_api_key sk_test_123

#

I tested and that works fine

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:55 PM

#

ok so no need to specify an account ID in the end?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:55 PM

#

No, sorry.

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 2:55 PM

#

ok, will try

#

and if I put this in the config file, now I should probably logout and then I don't need to put --api-key each time or ... ?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 2:58 PM

#

If you set this in the config then you don't need to put --api-key each time

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:02 PM

#

maybe I need to do it for login juste once ? (I logged out and use stripe login and it generated a new limited key)

#

wait, something is weird

#

hmm...stripe logout clears the config file 😅

#

I understand now why my key has been removed from the configuration...

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:04 PM

#

Ah yeah

#

I do think you would need to set it on login if you logout

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:04 PM

#

so in fact, I have to login and set the config afterwards ?

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

Yes using this method

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

so I logout. and the login give me

#

Now I will modify the configuration...

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

Yes

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:07 PM

#

but then it means that every time I will logout I should do that every time, it's not very practical

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:07 PM

#

Then the other option is to set the key at the OS-level, like in your ~/.bash_profile

#

That is what is referenced by https://docs.stripe.com/cli/api_keys with ```You can set two environment variables, which take precedence over all other values:

STRIPE_API_KEY: the API key to use for the CLI.```

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:09 PM

#

ok but we cannot set up that for multiple projects...

#

but it's better than nothing I think

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:10 PM

#

Yeah you would have to adjust it based on the login if you are using multiple accounts

#

It isn't really designed for that use-case

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:10 PM

#

maybe it should be 😛

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:11 PM

#

Yeah I can file some feedback for that

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:12 PM

#

thanks for your time

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:13 PM

#

Sure thing

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:21 PM

#

So !
I put the environment variables...
I did stripe login and ... the config file has an rk key ... 🤔

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:22 PM

#

What happens when you make your request though?

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:25 PM

#

⌛ I struggle to find the used key 👀

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:26 PM

#

Do you have a request ID?

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:26 PM

#

sub_1PDTNtFvrVE1j92WpLNbYKPM

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:27 PM

#

That did use your secret key

#

To delete the Sub

#

Not sure if you will be able to see this, but you could also override the Source (which you can see) and that would be indicative that your secret key was used

#

That would be via STRIPE_DEVICE_NAME

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:29 PM

#

I already put STRIPE_DEVICE_NAME in my ZSH configuration

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:29 PM

#

Ah actually, you can see the requests made by that key if you go to API Keys in your Dashboard and click on the three dots

#

Then you can filter requests by that key

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:32 PM

#

yep it seems to show the most recent requests indeed 🤔

#

even if the filter is not visible in the shown filters

sterile prism May 6, 2024, 3:33 PM

#

Yeah I don't think we provide an explicit filter for that unfortunately

#

(That you can toggle)

lavish hatch May 6, 2024, 3:34 PM

#

so we must trust blindfoldedly that the application shows us the good things ^^
