Now that you have set up the webhook in Stripe, it’s time to test your integration. Go back to your Stripe dashboard and create a test payment using the payment link provided. Ensure the payment amount exceeds the threshold you set, such as ₹10,000.

After completing the test payment, return to Pabbly Connect. You should see a response indicating that the payment has been received. This response will include all relevant details such as the amount, customer email, and payment ID.

Ensure the test payment exceeds ₹10,000. Check for a successful response in Pabbly Connect. Verify the details of the payment received.

This confirms that your Stripe payments are being tracked correctly through Pabbly Connect.
