Modify payment intents with a Slack DM
DM Notis with payment intent changes—new amount, different customer, extra metadata—and Stripe updates instantly.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Update Payment Intent
Updates a stripe paymentintent with new values for specified parameters; note that if `currency` is updated, `amount` might also be required, and certain updates (e.g., to `payment method`) can necessitate re-confirmation by the customer.
Why this helps
Modifying payment intents in Stripe's dashboard requires several clicks and context-switching, delaying payments.
- Update payment intents without leaving Slack
- Quickly handle amount or customer changes
- Reduce time to payment finalization
- Avoid dashboard navigation and errors
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Stripe to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: name it 'DM Payment Intent Update', use this prompt: 'When I DM you asking to update a payment intent (amount, customer, or other details), apply that update in Stripe and confirm the change', choose 'Direct Message Received'.
- 3Notis watches your DMs for update requests.
- 4Set a Slack channel for confirmations.
- 5Test by DMing 'Update payment intent to $150' or 'Change payment for customer Jane'.
Questions about this workflow
How do I reference which payment intent to update?
Mention the payment intent ID, customer name, or context from your conversation. For example: 'Update the $100 payment intent to $150' or 'Change Jane's payment to $200'.
What details can I update?
You can update the amount, customer, description, metadata, and more. Notis handles the details flexibly.
Can I update a payment intent that's already confirmed?
Not directly, but Notis can create a new payment intent with the updated details if needed.
