Stripe ➔ Slack API Payload Specification

Technical reference for automating data exchange between Payments and Messaging workflows.

💡 How this integration works:

1. Stripe triggers an event when checkout.session.completed occurs.
2. Data is packaged into a standard JSON webhook payload.
3. Payload is delivered into your Slack API intake pipeline and mapped to your Messaging targets.
