#Rav3n - Invoice Emails
rustic juniper
Is it possible to add the "receipt_email" to an existing API key?

What do you mean by add it to an "API key"?
receipt_email is a property you pass when making a request to the Stripe API to create or update a Payment Intent, it's not something associated with an API key.

I've come in on the end of a project and only have a Key shown.
I have access to the Stripe account, but cant see how to add that "receipt_email" as a property.

You should never share your secret key, even parts of it, with anyone.
Especially not in public.
rustic juniper
Apologies - thank you
pseudo pine
So do you have access to the code that's creating the Payment Intents?
rustic juniper
no, not sure where to begin really.
the tech that would have written these has left the company.
and I cant find the original code on stipe site, assumed it was created offline?
pseudo pine
The code would be on your end, in your server-side code. Do you have access to the code for your Stripe integration?
rustic juniper
Where should I be seeing this?
pseudo pine
Are you a developer?
rustic juniper
No, sys admin - then dev has left company.
I have access to the https://dashboard.stripe.com/developers

👋 I'm just hopping in for @pseudo pine since they had to go
Let's back up for a second here - do you have an example of an Invoice that wasn't successfully sent to a customer?
rustic juniper
Yes, but receipt history showing
following that takes me here - https://stripe.com/docs/receipts

Can you share the Invoice ID you're looking at?

So I assume I need to create/modify the PaymentIntent as its missing the optional "email" field
raw geode
Okay, so whatever code your dev wrote is not passing us a receipt_email (see https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/create#create_charge-receipt_email) when the Charge is created, so we have no way of knowing where to send to send the receipt. You need to find your code thats creating these Charges and make sure you're correct setting receipt_email
rustic juniper
Where do I find that code?
raw geode
That's not something I can answer since I have no idea how you've integrated with Stripe - in an ideal world, your dev would've left instructions on where to find this, and if no one that is currently at your company is able to find it you'll need to hire someone that would be able to help you find it
rustic juniper
Okay - Can I grab details of external support please?
ill get a few quotes organised before informing my team lead.
raw geode
What do you mean by details of external support? If you're referring to hiring developers who could help you, that would be something you'd have to search for - places like Upwork would be a good place to start

Sorry, I meant is there a preferred list of freelancers?
would need Australian based
