Posted on by James Dannell

I've been trying to set up stripe as a payment processor after completing the setup in Azure and have been looking all over but I cant seem to find what this actually is, it isn't mentioned at all in stripes own documentation and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on what it is for me.

Is it just the Stripe publishable API key with the API key field being the secret key? Or something else?

Hi there

Just wondering if you ever got this working? I'm faced with the same conundrum with a small amount of online chatter suggesting the Service Key is actually the Stripe Publishable Key and the API Key is the Stripe Secret Key - as you also suggest above.

The addition of the credit card (stage 1) works fine - and I can see Stripe returns a token. But processing the payment (stage 2) fails, with Stripe suggesting the Publishable key has been used instead of the Secret Key in the API call. Amend the Service Key to the Secret Key then the addition of the credit card (stage 1) fails - so the publishable key must be working fine here. As Stripe is complaining the Secret Key is not being used for stage 2 - and I have nowhere else to put it - I suspect a bug in the solution. Any help or thoughts much appreciated!

Thanks, John
