Hi,
I have this endpoint here in JAvascript whcih calls stripe for a session ID. When i type this into a bowser it shows me this page:

#

Do you know why it doesnt show the checkout page.

#

What does the front-end code that redirects them to the page look like?

#

Also, what's the cs_xxx ID of a session you're creating?

austere trout
#

Front end code isn't really developed yet i was just about to start developing it. But I wanted to check to see if the sesion Id's would work with the url first.

#

Here is an example of a session ID: "cs_test_c1fbTQQmHt2u6IA1xqPRB9dhFeKVj83ajMPldRDjEIOivobzbRJHSIfYYf"

robust stream
#

No, you use the url field on the session object that is returned on creation. Not the id

#

I don't really know what URL you're trying to open in the browser as it's truncated

austere trout
robust stream
#

No that won't work. Redirect to the url field

austere trout
#

ahh ok. Thanks for your help I will give it ago now,

robust stream
#

You can just do a redirect server-side in your Node code instead of sending it to your front-end

austere trout

OK thanks for your help i just tried to go to the session.url url and it took me to a Stripe checkout page so i think this i sorted. You are a legend javascript developer 😆
