I’m a newbie to using buy buttons. Can someone explain why the Buy button will not display? It’s as if a visibility condition is not true. There are lots of other components on the screen and they all work as normal. I have added a buy button. I checked and there are no visibility conditions set i…

Ok I think I cracked it. How to get instant notification when a user buys something using Stripe (caveat: you need to have an App with a Google sheet). When the User completes the sign in process I add a row to Glide Table called BUY. I set columns in this new row with all of the info needed to bu…

As long as the sheet is connected to the app then I don’t think it’s a concern, worth a try to know though. Hope it helps.

[image] ThinhDinh: ={'App: Sales'!A:Z} It works! I have a new Google sheet now called Sales Summary and it is a clone of the hidden Sales sheet. I should be able to use this in a number of ways. For example, I can have an action that checks ‘IF the newest row contains User info THEN do somet…

Let us know if you need any further help. [image] Simon_Hill: ‘IF the newest row contains User info THEN do something to unlock feature access’ Does each user purchase only once? If so you can use their email to make a relation, I guess.

Yes that’s right. They do. But I had the following in my mind: I read on the threads there is a risk that users change their email just before payment. Honestly, it’s something I do all the time since the account where I run the app is likely to be different from where I manage payments. Hence, I’…

So just discovered it’s impossible to pass the Row ID of the user (or other unique info) to Stripe and then into the Sales sheet. None of the button fields will accept a dynamic computed column. Shame. It will be risky to rely on just the email address since I don’t have a Pro App (yet) and cannot s…

[image] Stripe for Google Sheets: script and web-hook Community Resources You can deal with Stripe directly now… just get an API key from Stripe, and you can generate payment links… it works! no more 10% fees for Glide… I hope they gonna rethink these fees! [Screen Shot…

This is more tricky, but I think there’s still a way out. I’m thinking it this way: You have a button to add a row to a helper table. Let’s call the button “Start payment process”. That row will contain the signed-in user’s email and ID, in normal columns (when you use an add row action you add th…

You have to write values to static columns using action, before showing the buy button… or use the custom buy button… and google scripts to connect with stripe… i have a working script and webhook, that will write transactions back to google sheets and can be read by App… with no extra fees! :wink: …

you don’t need to add a user ID, stripe is passing user email… most important is to add an order ID to relate it with your record of sale in glide… if you have multiple items in the cart, you can add also joined row IDs for items to adjust inventory and shipping rates

Disagree. The user can modify the email field just before payment. Something quite likely to happen since people often use a different email for financial transactions. Much safer to use a row ID in a fixed field. Plus, what if you don’t collect real email addresses?
