Get Stripe Custom Fields from Checkout Sessions API

This n8n workflow addresses a key limitation in the Stripe API: custom fields are not available in invoice or charge data, requiring retrieval from the Checkout Sessions endpoint. It simplifies the process with a preconfigured HTTP request that fetches all sessions from the last 20 days using advanced pagination settings, including dictionary parameters for date ranges (created gte/lte timestamps). The workflow automatically handles 'starting_after' pagination until no more data is available, ensuring complete datasets without manual intervention.

Data transformation follows the fetch, restructuring the complex Stripe response into a user-friendly format. It then employs a Split Out node to isolate custom_fields while preserving other data, enabling straightforward filtering by specific custom field values. This makes it ideal for e-commerce automations where custom metadata (e.g., customer preferences, promo codes, or internal tags) drives downstream logic.

Benefits include significant time savings for developers avoiding Stripe API pitfalls, seamless integration with ERP systems or other n8n nodes for order processing, and scalability for high-volume stores. Use cases span retrieving order-specific custom data for invoicing, CRM updates, inventory adjustments, or analytics—pair it with Stripe invoice generation workflows for end-to-end automation. Perfect for Neura Market or similar platforms handling Stripe payments.
