How can I access the Supabase user ID in a SvelteKit +server.ts endpoint for Stripe checkout metadata?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

I'm trying to add my Supabase user ID to a Stripe checkout session's metadata, but I can't access it in my +server.ts file using @supabase-ssr in SvelteKit. I already create a Supabase client in my +layout.ts file based on the setup docs, so I shouldn't need to create it again elsewhere.

In one instance, accessing the user ID using event.locals.user inside a +page.server.ts file worked as intended:

JAVASCRIPT
const { data, error } = await supabase .from('form_flow_purchases') .insert({ user_id: event.locals.user?.id, principal_name: principal, state_of_residence: stateOfResidence, });

However, in my Stripe checkout session file (+server.ts), trying to use the following results in an error due to a deprecated event:

JAVASCRIPT
const supabase = event.locals.supabase;

Here's the full code for context:

TYPESCRIPT
import Stripe from 'stripe'; import { json, type RequestEvent } from '@sveltejs/kit'; import { BASE_URL, STRIPE_SECRET_KEY } from '$env/static/private'; const stripe = new Stripe(STRIPE_SECRET_KEY); export async function POST({ request }: RequestEvent) { try { const supabase = event.locals.supabase; // Error here const { priceId } = await request.json(); const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({ payment_method_types: ['card'], mode: 'payment', line_items: [ { price: priceId, quantity: 1 } ], metadata: { user_id: /* Need to add user ID here */ }, success_url: `${BASE_URL}/payments/success?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}`, cancel_url: `${BASE_URL}/payments/cancel` }); return json({ url: session.url }); } catch (error) { console.error('Stripe Checkout Error:', error); return json({ error: 'Failed to create checkout session' }, { status: 500 }); } }

I suspect the issue is related to destructuring the event improperly, as the function signature only extracts request and not locals. The desired outcome is to correctly access the user ID from locals (i.e., locals.user?.id) so it can be added to the Stripe session's metadata. Any suggestions on resolving this?

It looks like you're trying to access the entire event (and therefore event.locals) but in your function signature you're destructuring out only request. In SvelteKit, when you use the new endpoint format, you're provided with the event object (of type RequestEvent), which includes properties like request and locals. Since you destructure only request, the variable event isn't available in your function scope.

To fix this, you can destructure both request and locals from the event parameter. For example:

TYPESCRIPT
import Stripe from 'stripe'; import { json, type RequestEvent } from '@sveltejs/kit'; import { BASE_URL, STRIPE_SECRET_KEY } from '$env/static/private'; const stripe = new Stripe(STRIPE_SECRET_KEY); export async function POST({ request, locals }: RequestEvent) { try { // Now you have access to both supabase and user on locals. const supabase = locals.supabase; const { priceId } = await request.json(); const session = await stripe.checkout.sessions.create({ payment_method_types: ['card'], mode: 'payment', line_items: [ { price: priceId, quantity: 1 } ], metadata: { user_id: locals.user?.id // add your user id here }, success_url: `${BASE_URL}/payments/success?session_id={CHECKOUT_SESSION_ID}`, cancel_url: `${BASE_URL}/payments/cancel` }); return json({ url: session.url }); } catch (error) { console.error('Stripe Checkout Error:', error); return json( { error: 'Failed to create checkout session' }, { status: 500 } ); } }

Key Points

  • Destructure Properly: Instead of using event.locals.supabase, destructure locals directly from the event parameter.
  • Access Metadata: Use locals.user?.id to attach the Supabase user ID to your Stripe session metadata.
  • No Redundant Client: As you mentioned, since you're already creating a Supabase client in your +layout.ts file, you can use the one on locals without needing to create it again.

This should resolve the error and correctly add your Supabase user ID to Stripe checkout session metadata.
