I know one could possibly call createConfirmationToken in onConfirm of the ExpressCheckoutElement and then display the “review your order” content and finalize the payment with the confirmation token but this seems kind of wrong to me, if there are specific ways from paypal/klarna to do it - and also its not possible if using the non express checkout payment methods which do a redirect in the same tab
Hi there, looking into this now. Looking over the prior thread to get the full context
Just for clarification, is it possible to check if items are in stock earlier in the process? I'm doing some research, but it doesn't seem like we currently have the flow you are looking for with Klarna/PayPal
of course, I could check when the /checkout page is opened or after my order/pay button was pressed (before I call stripe.confirmPayment)
but after this it might take some minutes due to 3DS/paypal checkout / klarna checkout and in that time theoretically the item can be sold out and I would need to refund or not capture the authorization (...leaving the customer who wasnt able to buy the item because if was sold out with notification from paypal/klarna/his bank which is not the best ux I think)
Makes sense, thinking of best options here
I consulted with my colleagues, the feature that you're requesting does not currently exist (at least in general availability). I would say for now your best option is to write into support to see if the manual approval feature would work for your use case, and if so for you to get access. In the meantime, you could consider a different flow where you put a hold on an item if it reaches a certain threshold inventory level, and release the hold only after an order is completed with a successful payment
Yes, I mean I know its an edge case and your suggestion would work completely fine but I was curious if there is a better way - but I will write to the support.
Regarding the extra step for paypal/klarna payments which is more or less related to this - you said that this flow is currently don't supported - can i also ask the support about this, if this is planned or possible somehow?
Yes, that would be something that they can address
okay, then thanks for your help!! :))
Of course, glad to help in any way I can!
