Hello! If you're using Payment Intents you can just cancel the Payment Intent (https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/cancel)

hi, I've seen that and I understand, my question is just how would client pass that payments id?

do I pass client secret and access payment through there?

[wet fern]

Is the issue that you don't have a Payment Intent ID client-side to be able to send back to your server to tell it to cancel?

Yeah, I mean I have clientSecret

I don't know how I would get the paymentintent id on client side

[wet fern]

You can either retrieve the Payment Intent client-side with just the client secret (https://stripe.com/docs/js/payment_intents/retrieve_payment_intent) or you can also keep the Payment Intent ID client-side in addition to your cient secret

ah thank you, so cancelling is only server-sided right?

[wet fern]

Yup!

just setup the cancelling, @wet fern , I see that the payment elements are still there? how would I delete them?

[wet fern]

I believe you'd call destroy() (https://stripe.com/docs/js/element/other_methods/destroy)
