Hello, what steps specifically are you looking for help for here? Are you getting an error or trying to understand how to configure something?

I need to setup the portal. Step two: Implement a redirect on your site

And the webhooks are also a bit confusing

#

What about the redirect are you looking for help with here? We can get to the webhooks next

#

Are you having trouble making the API call to create the session, or with doing a server-side redirect to its URL, or something else?

Hi 👋 I'm stepping in for @thick tulip as they need to step away.

#

What about the API calls seem confusing?

#

The API call is pretty straightforward if you are using one of our client libraries on your server. How is your integration configured?

I'm not a developer - have basic code skills so when I read the process I'm not sure what to do

I know how to make a button and that code looks familiar. This part I don't understand:
"Next, add an endpoint that creates a portal session and redirects your customers. Make sure to authenticate customers on your site before creating sessions for them. To create a session, you need the customer’s ID and a return_url, which is required if a default return URL isn’t set in the Dashboard configuration."

Hmm okay well this Discord channel is specifically for developers asking for help with Stripe APIs.

#

For the recommendations for Customer Portal, we recommend your integration handle it's own authentication to verify the customer identity

#

After that you would allow the user access to the page with the button to redirect them the customer portal. That button would send a request to your server, which would create the Portal session and redirect the user's browser to the URL.

#

If you're not a developer, who is setting up the back-end your integration is using?

I was hoping to do this all myself. Can I access any freelancers here that could help me?
