Move successful invoice payments into CommCare
A paid invoice can signal that the next program step is ready. Let Notis submit a CommCare form when Stripe confirms payment.
Trigger
Invoice Payment Succeeded Trigger
Triggered when an invoice payment is successful in Stripe
Action
Submit Form to CommCare
Tool to submit an XForm to CommCare following the OpenRosa standard. Use when you need to submit form data with complete XML including required metadata fields (deviceID, timeStart, timeEnd, username, userID, instanceID).
Why this helps
When payment confirmation lives in Stripe and program records live in CommCare, a follow-up form can fall through the cracks.
- Start a program workflow from confirmed invoice payment
- Avoid checking Stripe manually for successful invoices
- Keep a run report for each submission attempt
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Stripe and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction what the successful payment should trigger in CommCare and which supported XForm to submit.
- 4Pick the Stripe Invoice Payment Succeeded trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real successful invoice payment and review the submission.
Questions about this workflow
Does this run when an invoice is created?
No. The trigger is Stripe's Invoice Payment Succeeded event, so it runs when an invoice payment succeeds.
Can Notis fill in CommCare data that Stripe does not contain?
No. Any required field or context that is not present in the payment event must be supplied separately, and the XForm must be supported by the CommCare project.
