HI 👋

#

In that case where you don't have a Stripe Price object with an ID, you will need to specify the price_data

so i need to add the "price_data" object to the line items object with a unit_amount?

#

Yes, that will allow you to define the price amount without creating a Stripe price record

Thanks, i got it to work

#

It made me add "product data" in order to get it to work. Do you know why that is needed?

Snufkin had to step out but I do know why that is needed. When creating a line item, you need to pass in product info in one of two ways:

Create a Product in beforehand and pass its ID (prod_123) in as the product field for your line item
Provide info to create an ad-hoc product via product_data as you did just now

is this product data stored somewhere?

#

Yes, you can see it again by retrieving the Checkout Session that you created

#

Can you tell me a bit more about what you are trying to do here?
