5
Connection Settings

Clicking settings will provide you with a drop down list of Bento sites in your account 1. Should you need to change the site you want stripe events to appear in you would make that change here.

How the connection works

When purchase events happen inside stripe, those events are forwarded to Bento in the form of a webhook. The common event you will be looking for is $ChargeSucceeded which signals that a payment was successfully processed by stripe. Depending on your use case there will be other data present, such as value, currency, the cart items if there are any. These events details will be valuable as data to use in flows.
