#stripe

I've had created a .php file that contains the checkout, I can see the button, but it's the charge creating that I don't understand.

alex512: another thing that might work is a 3rd party integration that only requires frontend code

Do you have any recommandations?

commencepayments.com does this

mattwc (who hangs around in this channel sometimes) maintains it

Howdy

hi hi

tr12: it's a bit confusing, so you're saying i can't call the standard api call: `stripe.Event.retrieve("evt_1ADqRbFYGrqwPVpiDNnr3FHG")` if i want to verify a connect account type event exists?

skyloath: those events are being delivered to your connect webhook endpoint

tr12: correct

any events delivered to that endpoint also have a `user_id` property which indicates what stripe account the event exists on

@skyloath have you set the managed account webhook in the web console?

tr12, got logging working.

var_dump is empty.

\o/

nuuu

-.-

@skyloath Its actually called connect webhook and the other is account webhook

empty as in literally nothing?

tr12 are you a stripe dev?

Literally nothing

theomo: yes

tr12 awesome!

theomo: just to smoke test, if you do var_dump("potato"); do you get anything?

tr12 nope"

tr12 Chris_m: to be clear ive setup a webhook for "Endpoints receiving events from Connect applications" to lsiten for events on prod with type: `account.updated`. the docs here (https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks) specify that i can call `event = stripe.Event.retrieve(event_json["id"])` to verify the event. but what you're saying tr12 is i have to instead call the get eevent on the managed account?

theomo: how about error_log("potato"); ?

tr12, yep works.

wat

var_dump is empty.

ok, whatever

json_decode is simply not working

The module is installed + enabled in php

let's do something like error_log(var_export(the thing you want to look at));

@skyloath How are you triggering the account update? are you using a live api key? Can you see the webhook in the web console?

the log

skyloath: those docs are talking about non-connect webhooks - for webhooks about connected accounts, you need to fetch the event from the account it exists on

Chris_m: I'm doing it from a python shell with a live api key. i can see the endpoint set in the webhook console

tr12 blank.

tr12: how do i do that, is there a doc for it?

stripe.Event.retrieve(id, stripe_account="acct_***") will do this

I mean if you go in your web console and sign in as the user do you see the webhook was delivered in the log of events?

you'd get the account ID with event.user_id

Chris_m: yes the webhook is delivered, that's not the issue.

tr12 I think var_dump/export isn't doing what it should be.

tr12: okay, once ive got the id. how do i make the api call to get all events for a speicifc managed account

I know but I am just making sure you have actually triggered an account update

event = stripe.Event.retrieve(event_json["id"])

Chris_m: sure, well yeah i've done that. i think what tr12 is saying makes sense, just not sure why its not easily documented/how to even do it

skyloath: you can list events with: https://stripe.com/docs/api#list_events

all api methods take a stripe_account param to indicate that the request should be executed on a specific account

I am doing this in Go, I receive the event in my webhook server and then I call the stripe server to pull the event with the ID to verify.

skyloath: so you can run the standard event list acll + stripe_account to list events on a particular acount

tr12: `events = stripe.Event.list(stripe_account=<managed_account_id>, limit=3) ` ?

then il have to iterate through that to find a match

didn't you say you wanted all events for that account?

tr12: no, i just want to verify the event that i receivve on a webhook (regardless of whose account it belongs to) is legitimate

then just the retrieve call from before will do

@skylaoth I take it you have read the api docs here https://stripe.com/docs/api#retrieve_event

tr12: stripe.Event.retrieve(event_json["id"]) but that doesn't work for me

you need to authenticate the api call as the connected account

import stripe stripe.api_key = "sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2" stripe.Event.retrieve("evt_1ADqFT2eZvKYlo2CzTKlwGyp")

guys, i appreciate the help but my answers have already indicated that i've set the api key, received a webhook event, called the retrieve api call

and failed at that point

skyloath: backing up a bit

did you try passing stripe_account?

tr12: nope, i just did stripe.Event.retrieve(event_json["id"])

tr12: based on what you said i imagine i should pass that in?

try stripe.Event.retrieve(event_json['id'], stripe_account=event_json['user_id'])

tr12: trying now

tr12: ok that worked perfectly!

tr12: thanks!

np!

tr12

I'm stumped.

theomo: gah, sorry

I lost you in the backscrolll

Don't worry about it :)

can you try outputting gettype / get_class?

stdClass

object

huh

so that is actually what you'd expect to get back

lol

how about error_log(var_export($event_json))?

tr12 - empty!

the empty string?

It's just empty.

Doesn't return anything

how about error_log("foo: " + var_export($event_json));

returns 0

wtf

ah wait

egh, sorry

need a . not +

yeah

friggin php

Yeah, just the foo:

Then blank

haha fun eh!

mm

I'm so confused.

theomo: you're testing with POST requests right not just get requests in your browser?

Yes

I'm firing test webhooks to my php file which is just logging on the backend

I'm using codeigniter, if that makes any difference.

theomo: and error_log($input) outputs a reasonable value?

Yes

I think you checked this before

It shows the JSON perfectly

but I'm losing my mind here

Me too!!

I've validated the JSON received in $Input. It's 100% valid.

and how are you setting $event_json?

hrm

$event_json = json_decode($input);

could you do something like $event_json = json_decode('{"foo": "bar"}'); ?

empty.

Weird

json_decode not working. at all?

is there some spooky action at a distance that could stomp the function?

lol

redefine it or something?

I forget if php will let you do that

I suspect it will, because lol php

function is endpoint()

I hate php :)

haha what should I switch to?

the json_decode function, I mean

ah

Python Java anything is better than Php

perl?

nooooo

lol
