View Source Stripe.Event (stripity_stripe v3.1.1)

Events are our way of letting you know when something interesting happens in your account. When an interesting event occurs, we create a new Event object. For example, when a charge succeeds, we create a charge.succeeded event, and when an invoice payment attempt fails, we create an invoice.payment_failed event. Certain API requests might create multiple events. For example, if you create a new subscription for a customer, you receive both a customer.subscription.created event and a charge.succeeded event.

Events occur when the state of another API resource changes. The event's data field embeds the resource's state at the time of the change. For example, a charge.succeeded event contains a charge, and an invoice.payment_failed event contains an invoice.

As with other API resources, you can use endpoints to retrieve an individual event or a list of events from the API. We also have a separate webhooks system for sending the Event objects directly to an endpoint on your server. You can manage webhooks in your account settings. Learn how to listen for events so that your integration can automatically trigger reactions.

When using Connect, you can also receive event notifications that occur in connected accounts. For these events, there's an additional account attribute in the received Event object.

We only guarantee access to events through the Retrieve Event API for 30 days.
