The attach API is a backend method, you won't have it frontend.

#

ahh is there a way to attach customer id in frontend

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

I think when you create a PaymentIntent backend, it's the timing to include the Customer Id

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

i can just do customer: customerId ?

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

before returning PaymentIntent's secret to client

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 2:28 AM

#

in payment intent backend

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 2:29 AM

#

yeah

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 2:29 AM

#

const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
            amount,
            currency: 'usd',
            metadata: {
                integration_check: 'accept_a_payment'
            },
            receipt_email: email,
            customer: curUser.customerId
        })

I did this on backend

#

payment method on front end is still null

#

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

Where do you see it's null?

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 2:30 AM

#

#

Okie quick question: What do you do after createPaymentMethod? Will you use it to confirm a PaymentIntent?

#

At the timing of creating PaymentMethod, it's true that you still can't attach it to a Customer yet. But when you use it to confirm a PaymentIntent, which is tighted to a Customer, they will all connect: the PaymentIntent, the Customer, and the PaymentMethod

oh so it attaches after the payment method

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:09 AM

#

yeah!

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 4:15 AM

#

looks like it created a new "guest" customer

#

#

instead of using the existing one

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

Did you pass Customer Id on PaymentIntent creation?

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 4:16 AM

#

#

yep

#

i checked if it was null also

#

it is succesfully settings the customer in paymentintents tho

#

just logged it

#

oh i think it worked now

#

is there a way to delete guest customers

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:22 AM

#

Did it... just work?

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

warped pond Did it... just work?

Yea Im not sure why it created this guest customer

#

i had customer key the whole time in paymentintent

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:23 AM

#

I think you would also want setup_future_usage

#

https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-during-payment

Save payment details during payment

Learn how to save payment details during a payment.

#

When both setup_future_usage and a customer are provided on a PaymentIntent, the payment details are automatically saved to the customer once the payment is confirmed. You can also supply this parameter when creating the PaymentIntent on your server.

#

sounds good thanks. is there a way to delete

#

guest customers

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

Yeah I am looking for that

#

1 min

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

i wonder why it created guest account but it knows that it is related to a customer haha

warped pond Mar 15, 2022, 4:28 AM

#

Sorry I think you can't delete guest customers. Please just ignore them

#

But I think if you specify both customer and setup_future_usage, it shouldn't create a Guest customer in the first place. LMK if you see diffirent

next stump Mar 15, 2022, 4:32 AM

#

sounds good thanks!
