Hi, you can attached a metadata to an existing credit note object by updating it: https://docs.stripe.com/api/credit_notes/update#update_credit_note-metadata
You can pass key value pairs to pass in the data you'd like
buoyant vale
ah yes I looked into this and it's a possibility however is there another way to add specifically for internal note?
paper oriole
There is not internal note parameter you can pass no. The behaviors between the Dashboard and the API can differ.
buoyant vale
ah I see makes sense. thanks!
as to my second question, when a credit memo is generated and a refund to credit card is selected -- is the refund happening asynchronously? also is there a notification that stripe sends if the refund fails?
paper oriole
I highly recommend that you review this: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/dashboard/credit-notes#customer-balances-discounts
Yes, you can listen to events: https://docs.stripe.com/api/events/types#event_types-credit_note.created related to created notes
Let me know what specific questions you have after reviewing the above documents

I believe I have read this but it doesn't tell me if the refund object in stripe is successfully created or not. For example: If I generatea credit note with a refund to the customers card and the refund transaction fails, will I see that error some where or get a notification from stripe?
tardy fox
If it's a refund credit note, it should create a refund object visibile here: https://docs.stripe.com/api/credit_notes/object#credit_note_object-refunds
So you'd get refund webhook events
buoyant vale
makes sense thanks! 👍
