Every time I attempt to create a new stripe object, I encounter the error message "Argument of type 'string | undefined' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string'. Type 'undefined' is not assignable to type 'string'.ts(2345) string | undefined"
The value for my STRIPE_SECRET_KEY is correctly declared in my .env.local file
import Stripe from 'stripe';
import { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from 'next';
const stripe = new Stripe(process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY, {
apiVersion: '2020-08-27',
// Replace with your desired Stripe API version
});
const handler = async (req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) => {
const { email } = req.body;
try {
const customer = await stripe.customers.create({
email: email,
});
res.status(200).json({
code: 'customer_created',
customer,
});
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
res.status(400).json({
code: 'customer_creation_failed',
error: error,
});
}
};
export default handler;
