Do you want to use PaymentLinks (a single link can be send to multiple customers, can be done without code), or Checkout Session (each customer gets a custom link, requires some code)

#

for the discord.js part isn't a problem as i work with it for over 1.5 yrs xD

#

so i'm able to take all the data

molten crescent Do you want to use PaymentLinks (a single link can be send to multiple customers...

i can do both i have no limitations

#

quick question:

#

if i do it using the paymentLinks can i still handle events like a successful payment right?

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 9:23 AM

#

If you are using PaymentLink, it's actually using Checkout Session behind the scene. So in both case you would listen to webhook events like checkout.session.completed.

perfect

sorry to bother you again,
so i've created the payment link and i've setup the code taken from the dashboard webhook creation page

#

but still i'm in dubt on how to link a webhook into this payment link =\

#

what do you mean by "link"? what exact info are you looking for? In the checkout.session.completed you should get a Checkout Session object.

#

basically i have this test product:
https://buy.stripe.com/test_dR64k95L275OcSs4gg
and i wanna setup an event listener with a local server with it but i'm not understanding how

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:15 AM

#

Have you followed this guide: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks/quickstart
And do you receive the checkout.session.completed event?

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:16 AM

#

yea

#

that's what i followed

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:21 AM

#

So you do get the checkout.session.completed event? Then what is your question exactly? What information are you looking for?

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:22 AM

#

i get it on the online CLI

#

but while in the local server it doesnt recieve events

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:30 AM

#

So you are using something like stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/stripe_webhooks?

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

yep

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

And does your server receives the events?

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

nop

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

Can you add some logs to your server to check if its at least called?

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

ok

#

gimme a sec

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 10:32 AM

#

Otherwise double check that you used the correct url in the stripe listen command and that your server is actually running.

vital lance May 12, 2022, 10:56 AM

#

molten crescent Otherwise double check that you used the correct url in the `stripe listen` comm...

ok so i've done some tests and now i was able to link my local server to a payment

#

when i'll try it into the live mode

#

i'll have to change only the endpoint secret right?

#

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

I see "404" errors in your screenshot, it means the url you passed in the Stripe CLI in not the correct one.

#

But yes once you stop using the Stripe CLI, you will need to create a webhook endpoint in the dashboard, and use the new endpoint secret.

vital lance May 12, 2022, 11:25 AM

#

theoically

#

if i plan to host like the discord bot locally then i'm able to continue to use the CLI to recieve events even in the Live Mode?

molten crescent May 12, 2022, 11:28 AM

#

I wouldn't recommend using the Stripe CLI in live mode, and instead use a real webhook endpoint. However yes it's possible by using the --live flag
You can see all options for the listen command here: https://stripe.com/docs/cli/listen
