Setting up stripe locally

Handling requests from Stripe

We use webhooks to listen to stripe event that required to update the flow in our backend. For this we need to make sure to run the webhook locally.

In our node server, we listen to webhook events at /webhook/stripe so the url will be <backend_url>/webhook/stripe

Follow the steps in the https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks/quickstart go to the section Test the webhook.

1. Update the webhook in the Stripe Developer console to it. For example http://localhost:8080/webhook/stripe

2. Download stripe cli and login to it

3. Now perform any plan subscription in the billing to check events are used in the node environment.
