Hi there 👋 there is, you can pass values into the line_items.price_data parameter to set the price. If you don't already have a product created, then you'll need to pass in at least a name to line_items.price_data.product_data.

Hi toby ! Thanks for the prompt reply !

#

Can this name be some random variable , for ex some uuidv4?

low dome Nov 11, 2021, 1:04 PM

#

Yup, we aren't picky about that. I'd just recommend you test the flow and make sure it won't look confusing to your users.

Got it ! Many I ask , do these have to be unique ? Or can I just hard-code it ?

low dome Nov 11, 2021, 1:07 PM

#

No, the name doesn't need to be unique.

Sorry to bother you again , but it seems like in the docs all the prices are based on the quantity , how can I pass the amount without relying on a quantity, basically computed by myself ?

#

The easiest way would be to pass in the desired amount as the unit_amount and then just always set the quantity to 1.
