Hi there 👋 are you trying to update the amount you're using for the Express Checkout Element in the middle of your flow, or are you trying to set the price initially and it isn't displaying as expected?
dense cloud
Gotcha. And how are you initiliazing Elements? Are you creating the Payment Intent first and using its client secret, are you passing mode, currency, amount, etc as part of the initialization?
shut cypress
Yes payment intent first
dense cloud
Do you have a test page where I can see what you're describing?
shut cypress
I am sorry I do not, it's local
req_w6h86rJRWQ3HIR is the request as you can see the intent has the correct value and I would like just loading the express would pull that value correct?
Just doing this to create the express checkout
const expressCheckoutElement = elements.create(
'expressCheckout', exoptions
)
// mount display
expressCheckoutElement.mount('#express-checkout-element')
dense cloud
Yeah, I see the amount set during the Payment Intent creation request as you describe. It's why I was hoping to see the Elements side of your integration to see if I could spot what's going on.
shut cypress
My thought is I am setting the element correct but the element amount is being updated with a decimal value, but wouldn't we see that "update" in the logs?
everywhere I manipulate the amount, I am outputting it and it always is correct, it's just dumbfounded.
dense cloud
Most Elements updates aren't shown in your logs, and you wouldn't be updating Elements if you're using a client-secret form an intent to drive its behavior.
You mentioned link (I'm thinking that's Link) in your original description. Do the Google/Apple pay modals show the correct amount?
shut cypress
No they all show the same incorrect amount
dense cloud
Okay, so Elements is definitely getting the wrong amount then.
shut cypress
When creating expressCheckout element I don't pass any amount correct
it pulls from the payment element
dense cloud
Correct, if you were to manually pass the amount to Elements it would be when initializing Elements itself:

The Payment Element also pulls its amount from the Elements instance.
