Hi 👋
Can you share how out are initializing Stripe?
sonic dagger
hello this is how we initialize Stripe Elements
<Elements options={{ clientSecret: '{{CLIENT_SECRET}}'} stripe={stripePromise}>
{CheckoutForm}
</Elements>
Client secret variable is generated from server
sage matrix
What object is the client secret coming from?
What code on the server generates it?
If you are using a Setup Intent, then it doesn't make sense to specify an amount. If you are using a Payment Intent, you need to update the amount on the Payment Intent instead.
You only specify an amount on the elements if you are using an integration that does not initialize with a client_secret.
sonic dagger
Client secret is generated from calling this endpoint https://api.stripe.com/v1/payment_intents
with the following params for example
curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/payment_intents
-d amount=6000
-d currency=usd
-H "Stripe-Account: acct_1H5GxwGbF4GB4p16"
-d capture_method=automatic
-d mode="payment"
as per your comment "If you are using a Payment Intent, you need to update the amount on the Payment Intent instead."? so we can't update using elements.update in the UI?
