Stripe Integration

Step 1: Setting Up Stripe Payments API for Your Chatbot Through ActivePieces​ #

Step 1: Adding Your Product to Stripe​ #

1. Go to the Stripe website and log in.
2. On the left side menu, click on “Product Catalog”.
3. Click the “Add product” button on the right side of the page. 
4. Fill in the details about your product (name, description, etc.). 
5. Click “Add product” to save.

Step 2: Setting Up Pricing​ #

1. In your product list, click on the product you just added. 
2. Look for the “Add price” button and click it. 
3. Enter the price details (amount, currency, billing period if applicable). 
4. Click “Add price” to save.
5. Repeat this process for all the plans listed in your chat.smarterbot.ai PricePlan List. 

Step 3: Creating a Test Product​ #

1. Create a special price called “TestProductPrice”. 
2. Set its price to a very small amount (like $0.01).
3. This is just for testing – you can delete it later.

Step 4: Setting Up the Payment Flow​ #

1. We’ll use a no-code platform tool called ActivePieces, but you can use any similar tool you’re comfortable with.
2. Download the template from: Stripe_Checkout
3. In ActivePieces, click “Import Flow” and select the file you just downloaded.  
4. You’ll need to enter your Stripe API Secret key in the appropriate field. 
5. Paste Secret Key into the red box below and replace the text in quotation marks: 
6. Click “Publish” to make your flow live. 

Step 5: Connecting to chat.smarterbot.ai​ #

1. After publishing, you’ll get a webhook URL. 
2. Add “/sync” to the end of this URL for response return.
3. Go to your chat.smarterbot.ai settings and paste this full URL into the “Payment API URL” field. 
4. Click “Verify Payment API” to test the connection. 
5. If successful, click “Save” to finish the setup. 

That’s it! You’ve now set up Stripe payments for your chat.smarterbot.ai Chatbot. Remember, if you need help, don’t hesitate to ask for assistance.

Step 2: Payment Success Notifications – Stripe Example​ #

Setting Up Payment Success Notifications – Stripe Example​ #

This guide will help you set up a system that notifies you when a payment is successful using Stripe.

Step 1: Get the Template​ #

First, you need to download a special file (called a template) that contains instructions for this process. You can get it from this link: Stripe_InvoicePaid

Step 2: Import the Template​ #

1. Open your payment management tool (Active Pieces in this example).
2. Look for an “Import” button and click it. 
3. Choose the file you just downloaded. 

Step 3: Set Up Payment Connection with Smarterbot API​ #

• 'newoaks_api_url': 'https://usapi.hottask.com/chat/Chatbot/PaymentWebHook'
• 'newoaks_api_key': '<YOUR-NEWOAKS-API-KEY>' The key for authenticating the API request (found on the Workspace -> Webhooks API -> chatrobot-sessionkey).

These are like a special address and password for your payment system.

Step 4: Publish the Webhook URL​ #

Look for the “Publish” button and click it.

After publishing, you’ll get a webhook live URL.

Step 5: Connect to Stripe Event Listeners​ #

Now we need to tell Stripe (the payment processor) to send notifications to your new system.

1. Go to the Stripe website webhook pageg: 

1. Look for Add endpoint button to add a new “webhook” (that’s what Stripe calls these notifications)
2. Copy the webhook live URL from Step4; Add “/sync” to the end of this URL for response return.
3. Paste the URL to the Endpoint URL input box.
4. Under “Select events”, choose “invoice.paid”
5. Click Add Endpoint to save it.

This tells Stripe to notify your system whenever an invoice is paid.

That’s it! Your system is now set up to receive notifications when a payment is successful.

Remember, if you’re not familiar with these tools, it might be a good idea to ask for help from someone with technical experience to ensure everything is set up correctly.
