# Stripe

The **Stripe Node** allows you to interact with Stripe, a payment processing platform. In Stack AI, you can use this node to automate tasks such as creating customers, processing payments, issuing refunds, and more.

***

### Available Actions

Here are some of the main actions you can perform with the Stripe node:

* **Create Customer**: Add a new customer to your Stripe account.
* **Create Payment**: Charge a customer or process a payment.
* **List Charges**: Retrieve a list of past charges.
* **Search Customer**: Find customers by email or other criteria.
* **Send Refund**: Issue a refund for a specific charge.

***

### Example: Create Customer

#### Inputs

To create a customer, you need to provide:

* **Customer Name** (`customer_name`):\
  The name of the customer to create. (Required)
* **Customer Email** (`customer_email`):\
  The email address of the customer. (Required)

You can reference other nodes for these values, for example:\
`{in-0}` for user input, or `{llm-0}` for AI-generated content.

#### Outputs

After running, the node will output:

* **Customer ID** (`customer_id`): The unique Stripe ID for the new customer.
* **Customer Name** (`customer_name`): The name you provided.
* **Customer Email** (`customer_email`): The email you provided.
* **Customer Created At** (`customer_created_at`): The timestamp of creation.

You can reference these outputs in downstream nodes using the syntax `{action-8.customer_id}` (if your Stripe node is `action-8`).

***

### How to Use the Stripe Node

1. **Add the Stripe node to your workflow.**
2. **Select the desired action** (e.g., "Create Customer").
3. **Fill in the required input fields** (e.g., customer name and email).
   * You can use static values or reference outputs from other nodes.
4. **Connect the output of the Stripe node to other nodes** (e.g., to send a confirmation email, log the customer, or trigger another action).
5. **(Optional) Add your Stripe connection ID** if you have a custom Stripe account you want to use.

***

### Example Usage Scenario

* Collect user details with an Input node.
* Pass those details to the Stripe node to create a customer.
* Use the output (customer ID) to process a payment or send a welcome email.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.stackai.com/workflow-builder/apps/stripe.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
