Here is my checkout code:

    const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({
      customer: user.stripeCustomerId,
      mode: "subscription",
      line_items: [
        {
          price: id,
          quantity: 1,
        },
      ],
      subscription_data: {
        trial_settings: {
          end_behavior: {
            missing_payment_method: "cancel",
          },
        },
        trial_period_days: 7,
      },
      success_url: new URL(
        `/success?session={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}`,
        basepath
      ).toString(),
      cancel_url: new URL(
        "/cancel?session={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}",
        basepath
      ).toString(),
      metadata: {
        vendorId: vendorId,
      },
      allow_promotion_codes: true,
      locale: "pt-BR",
      client_reference_id: user.id,
    });

Hi, let me help you with this.

How are you exporting the payment data?

[languid lion]

In the dashboard, payments tab

I get this

I tried adding all columns and I still get only this metadata

That comes from the checkout

But when the billing cycle restarts it creates a new id without the metadata, and I don't see a way to add it to it

This is how I update the metadata in the payment intent

async function onPaymentIntentSucceed(event: Stripe.Event) {
  const paymentIntent = event.data.object as Stripe.PaymentIntent;

  try {
    // Retrieve the associated customer
    const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(
      paymentIntent.customer as string
    );

    if (customer.deleted) {
      console.warn(`Customer ${customer.id} has been deleted.`);

      return;
    }

    // Get vendorId from customer metadata
    const vendorId = customer.metadata?.vendorId;

    if (!vendorId) {
      console.warn("No affiliate ID found in customer metadata");
      return;
    }

    // Update the PaymentIntent metadata
    await stripe.paymentIntents.update(paymentIntent.id, {
      metadata: {
        vendorId: vendorId,
      },
    });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error updating PaymentIntent metadata:", error);
  }
}

As you can see in the image, it does work, but I can't see this data in the export file.

How are you setting this metadata exactly?

[languid lion]

Right now when I receive the payment_intent.succeeded event through the webhook

[languid lion]

And I handle it through this last snippet of code I sent

[spring inlet]

Why are you not setting it on the other PaymentIntents?

[languid lion]

Oh well, I guess it wasn't working before for some reason

Now it does update

I actually don't need this metadata in the checkout

Thanks. I thought that this was the metadata from the checkout, but apparently it was the PaymentIntent, and I rushed things so I forgot to test it again 🤦‍♂️

[spring inlet]

Are you able to copy the metadata every time a new PaymentIntent is created?

[languid lion]

Yeah
