This is the entire method where I'm creating the Checkout session on the server:

#

$checkoutSession = \Stripe\Checkout\Session::create([
'payment_method_types' => ['card', 'amazon_pay', 'link', 'us_bank_account'],
'line_items' => [[
'price_data' => [
'currency' => 'usd',
'product_data' => [
'name' => $title,
'description' => $refundPolicy,
],
'unit_amount' => $payment->amount * 100, // Convert to cents
],
'quantity' => 1,
]],
'metadata' => [
'payment_id' => $payment->id,
'product_id' => $payment->getRawOriginal('product_id'),
],
'customer_email' => Auth::user()->email,
'mode' => 'payment',
'success_url' => route('payThankyou', ['payment' => $payment->id]),
'cancel_url' => route('home'),
]);

#

This is the intent that was created but without any metadata: pi_3QdBUJH1Z1K59F9K0U7kuUVK

👋 happy to help

primal helm
#

You guys are always the best 🙂

hard summit
#

thanks 🙂

#

what event are you listening to?

primal helm
#

I'm listening to payment_intent.succeeded, charge.suceeded, payment_intent.pending, and a few others

hard summit

#

I'm not 100% what that means

#

In my code, I'm creating a "session" - is that different than creating a payment intent?

#

Or that's just a subset of data that can be passed to a session?

#

if you want to pass the metadata to the PaymentIntent you need to use payment_intent_data.metadata instead of metadata which stores the metdata on the checkout session level

primal helm
#

Where would i retrieve session level data? If I had the payment_intent ID is the session accessible from taht?

hard summit
#

Where would i retrieve session level data?
checkout.session.completed event

primal helm
#

Oooh

#

I guess I did not really understand how Checkout works. A session is not at all the same thing as a payment_intent?

#

I had been using Stripe Elements before and was trying to replicate the workflow I had with that

hard summit
#

A session is not at all the same thing as a payment_intent?
no a Checkout Session is basically either a hosted or embedded Stripe Page that we generate for you

#

Stripe Elements can work with Checkout Sessions (but it's in a private beta now)

primal helm
#

Alright... it's starting to clear up. So right now, I do not listen for the checkout.session.completed events and that's where my metadata is. But is it possible to put metadata into the charge or payment_intent events from the server when I create the session?

#

I just tried this but it did not work:

#

'payment_intent_data.metadata' => [
'payment_id' => $payment->id,
'product_id' => $payment->getRawOriginal('product_id'),
],

hard summit
#

'payment_intent_data' => [metadata' => [ ....]]

primal helm
#

Okay gotcha - lemme test that real quick

#

BINGO 🙂

#

And I've learned something

#

Thanks for your help!!

hard summit
#

no worries, let me know if you need any more help

primal helm
#

Have a great Friday

hard summit

thanks you too
