I am working on one task where i need to confirm that merchant successfully onboarded their self into stripe using connected account link. for that i am using account.updated webhook to perform flag updation for this. but i am getting error, like "Webhook signature verification failed: No signatures found matching the expected signature for payload. Are you passing the raw request body you received from Stripe? https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node#webhook-signing". I am also provided code for you. so can you help me with this error?

static async webhook(req,user){
//const { stripe } = await stripeService.getStripeInstance();
const sig = req.headers['stripe-signature'];
console.log("sig",sig)
console.log("stripe",stripe)
let event;

try {
    console.log('req.body',req.body)
    console.log('webhookSecret',webhookSecret)
    event = stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(req.body, sig, webhookSecret);
    console.log("event",event);
} catch (err) {
    console.error('Webhook signature verification failed:', err.message);
}

if (event.type === 'account.updated') {
    const account = event.data.object;

    const isOnboarded = account.requirements.currently_due.length === 0;

    // await Restaurant.updateOne(
    //     { stripeAccountId: account.id },
    //     { isOnboarded: isOnboarded }
    // );

    console.log(`Updated onboarding status for account: ${account.id} - Onboarded: ${isOnboarded}`);
} else {
    console.log(`Unhandled event type ${event.type}`);
}
return true

}

Your system can listen to account.updated event and check the following properties:

• charges_enabled with true allows payment to be processed on this connected account: https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-charges_enabled
• payout_enabled with true allows payout to be done on this connected account: https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-charges_enabled
• Any requirements that hasn't been completed: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/hosted-onboarding#handle-new-requirements-becoming-due

"Webhook signature verification failed: No signatures found matching the expected signature for payload. Are you passing the raw request body you received from Stripe? https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node#webhook-signing" usually means that your Node server doesn't parse the request in its raw form

This is the guide to how to retrieve the raw request body: https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks/signature#retrieve-the-raw-request-body

I don't see your code maintain the request body in its raw form with any of the following:

• express.raw({type: 'application/json'}): https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks/quickstart?lang=node
• bodyParser.raw({ type: 'application/json' }): https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node/issues/341

I have apply this into my routes file as below
router.post('/webhook', express.raw({type: 'application/json'}),stripeController.webhook);

but still getting the error

[chrome tangle]

Does your node middleware configure parse all the requests to JSON somewhere? For example, if you have app.use(express.json()); prior to your webhook route, this will parse the requests in all JSON, not in raw form before reaching to your webhook function.

[crimson zephyr]

yes, i am using app.use(express.json()) into my app.js for all the routes. but i am not able to remove this correct so how can i resolsved webhook route issue?

[chrome tangle]

Can you move your webhook route before app.use(express.json())?

The order of where app.use(express.json()) is placed matters

[crimson zephyr]

sure i will check this

currently i have checked with manually using the stripe listen --forward-to localhost:3007/stripe/webhook. and now after your suggested changes i am not able to get the error. but now let's suppose one merchant onboarded them self then i need to check weather this webhook run and update the flag into my database or not. then how can i check this?

[chrome tangle]

You can check whether account.updated event is sent and those properties mentioned above are checked by adding additional logs

[crimson zephyr]

so when any merchant onboarded their self then this account.updated webhook run automattically correct ?

[chrome tangle]

Any change on the hosted onboarding will result in account.updated event. You should still check the charges_enabled, payout_enabled and requirements properties to determine if the connected account has charge and payout enabled and whether there is any pending requirements to complete. If both of charge and payout are enabled and no requirement is pending, then the connected account is fully onboarded
