howdy!

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:37 PM

#

👋 did you see https://docs.stripe.com/keys?lang=ruby#organization-api-keys these docs show code examples in all languages

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:38 PM

#

Thanks! I tried something very very similar, I'm not trying the following and still having it complain about context header:

Stripe::Event.list(opts: {stripe_context: 'acct_1TKB7IQekASihiFj'})

#

failed with the example as well

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:40 PM

#

try this:

Stripe::Event.list({},{stripe_context: 'acct_1TKB7IQekASihiFj'})

#

it's basically the same as the Stripe-Account header https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication#stripe-account-header

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:41 PM

#

THAT WORKED!, so I need to provide an empty hash to start?

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:41 PM

#

yeah

#

Basically:

first hash: parameters to the API like limit or type for that API
second hash: options for that API Request like the API key or API version but also the Stripe-Account or Stripe-Context header

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:42 PM

#

cool! Now for the organization level webhook, is there a way to see what account_id the event is for?

#

I've also noticed I can't use the console for some reason when I'm playing around with the organization webhook, but I can when I go into a sub-account (realty). Is this intentional?

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:44 PM

#

yeah see https://docs.stripe.com/webhooks#webhook-endpoint-def which says there's context that tells you what account this is coming from

#

I don't really grasp the second part of your question

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:45 PM

#

So here I am in the organization, I've set up a webhook on the organization level for all sub accounts:

#

I don't have a way to replay events or experiment with stripe console

#

however if I go into the realty account

#

#

Now I can execute shell commands and thus replay events

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:46 PM

#

Organizations API keys/Events are quite new so I assume we just haven't built this yet

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:47 PM

#

gotcha, that makes sense. hm this is tricky.

#

I can probably just set it up from the realty account for now and deal with the consequences of my actions down the line

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:48 PM

#

Up to you I would say, it all works, just the Dashboard doesn't show all features yet

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:52 PM

#

and just confirming this method:

Stripe::Webhook.construct_event

the "secret" param is the webhook secret, not the api key correct?

#

I guess the reason I wanted to do it on an org level is I didn't want to juggle multiple webhook secrets and API keys, instead just have a logical switch based on the account the webhook is for

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:53 PM

#

correct

#

and for the second part that's fair/reasonable, really depends how separate all those accounts in your Org are

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:57 PM

#

So instead of using API keys, I can pass the webhook context through to the api call? I don't even need to pull the API key of the sub account

#

That seems cleanest

#

1 webhook secret, 1 api key, conditional logic based on the context

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:57 PM

#

yes that's the goal of Organization API keys!

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 5:58 PM

#

you guys think of everything. thank you very much. I should be able to figure it out. I do wish you guys have the stripe console setup for org level stuff / dashboard since I feel slightly crippled without it but this is nitpicky

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 5:59 PM

#

Make sure to flag it to our support team who track those kind of requests: https://support.stripe.com/contact

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 6:00 PM

#

actually, last question

#

I think the way it makes sense to do this is to have a StripeClient for each account. Is it possible to just initialize a stripeclient with the context such that I don't have to set it each time?

#

oh yes lol

#

literally there

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 6:02 PM

#

https://github.com/stripe/stripe-ruby/blob/master/lib/stripe/stripe_client.rb#L21 yeah the code supports it

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 6:09 PM

#

how would I go about replaying an org level webhook event?

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 6:11 PM

#

I don't think we support this yet sorry. At least I see nothing on our Stripe CLI about --stripe-context so I think it's coming in the future

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 6:14 PM

#

is there a way to send a test event from the org webhook?

short herald Apr 20, 2026, 6:16 PM

#

I don't know 😓
Sorry I wish I had a better answer but this is all super new and I almost never use the Dashboard

#

Really don't focus too much on the UI per se. Create a Customer on one of your account and see the customer.created be sent

spice cargo Apr 20, 2026, 6:16 PM

#

that's actually very valid, I will try and just trigger events via misc actions
