👋 Welcome to your new thread!

⏲️ We'll be here soon! Typically we respond in a few minutes, but sometimes we might take a bit longer if the server is busy or if you have a particularly tricky question.

⏱️ We close idle threads, which makes them read-only. Once a thread is closed it won't be reopened, but you can always start a new thread if you have another question.

🔗 This thread will always be available, even after it's closed. You can find it again using Discord's search, or you can save this link: https://discord.com/channels/841573134531821608/1308134936531701863

Hi 👋

You said webhook events are failing. Do you have any event ID I can review? They start with evt_

distant prism Nov 18, 2024, 6:24 PM

#

Sure let me get that for you

#

evt_1QMZ9CBH8SJ1NP7tDjFXWQPm

#

This is the latest one, but they all failed.

#

Obviously this is what we need to ensure that the monthly payment was made so help would be appreciated 😆 .

It looks like your webhook endpoint isn't responding to our POST request.

#

You never sent a response back

That's odd, this is the code for when an API request is made (snippet):

app.post("/api/v1/webhook", async (req, res) => {
    let event = req.body;
    let userId;
    let user;
    switch (event.type) {
        case "invoice.paid":
            console.log("[+] INVOICE PAID EVENT!")
            userId = event.data.object.customer;
            user = await User.findOne({ stripeId: userId }).populate({
                path: "purchasedPackage.package",
                select: "-__v",
            });
            const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(userId, {
                apiKey: stripesecret
            });
            if (!user) {
                user = await User.findOne({ email: customer.email }).populate({
                    path: "purchasedPackage.package",
                    select: "-__v",
                });
            }
            user.purchasedPackage.remainingLines =
                user.purchasedPackage.package.lineLimit;
            const now = new Date();
            const futureDate = new Date(now);
            futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 30);
            user.purchasedPackage.nextPaymentDue = futureDate;
            await user.save();
            console.log("Paid!");

            break;

#

Does this not constitute a response back?

#

And while we're already here. If a user wants to modify their card details, how can I fetch the external link for them to do so for recurring payments?

You need to make sure your integration returns a 200 response to our API. It is not doing so currently and you need to figure out why

I think that customer retrieval request might be missing a param

#

If that's where you get the authentication error, you can try adding an empty params arg:

const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(userId, 
  {}, // empty params
  { // options
    apiKey: stripesecret
  }
);

#

And verifying your stripesecret is populated at runtime (don't share any secret key here, though)

#

But as @light hollow noted, you should ensure you respond to the delivery request with a success message before you do any processing on the request data
