What is it you're trying to test exactly?

Hello i just want to find a way to know status of payment_link
marsh lintel
Well Payment Links are reusable, so their status does not reflect the status of a particular payment
finite magnet
in the process I want to notify and give a payment link to my customer, and then check if the payment is still pending fulfilled or cancelled

yeah so i guess payment link isn't the right request to use
marsh lintel
Well each time the Payment Link is used it generates a Checkout Session in the background which accurately reflects the status of the payment
finite magnet
okay so how can i retrieve this checkout session? does payment link response give me a checkout session id ?

No, because it's not a 1:1 relationship, it's a 1:n relationship
What is it you're trying to do exactly? Why do you need the payment status?
finite magnet
just to inform if the payment has been fulfilled
marsh lintel
Well this is how you do that post payment with Payment Links: https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/fulfill-orders
finite magnet
yeah i would love to use webhook but this is the issue since it is a desktop software
marsh lintel
It's really the only recommended way. There's no easy way to know which payment belongs to which customer directly via the API
finite magnet
but can i use invoice ? i saw when i make the process manually on the website i can get a link for the payment
but i don't know how to get this link with API
and then i just have to retrieve the invoice so i can get a status maybe
finite magnet
yeah i tried making an invoice
then i also created an invoice_items that i associated with the invoice but still don't know how to get a link for payment
marsh lintel
I just sent you the field on the Invoice object that is the URL for the hosted payment page that you can share with customers. It'll likely be null until the invoice is finalized: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/integration#create-invoice-code
