SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Upgrading Stripe API versions and SDKs involves breaking changes, version pinning rules, and platform-specific constraints that are easy to get wrong, risking failed payments or broken webhook handling. ## Core Features & Use Cases - API Version Migration: Explains backward-compatible versus breaking changes and how to pin or override API versions in Ruby, Python, PHP, Node.js, Java, Go, and .NET. - Stripe.js and Mobile SDK Guidance: Covers Stripe.js evergreen releases (Acacia, Basil, Dahlia), npm versioning, and semantic versioning rules for iOS, Android, and React Native SDKs. - Use Case: You need to move your Node.js integration from API version 2024-12-18.acacia to 2026-08-26.dahlia. Follow the upgrade checklist to update the SDK package, set the apiVersion parameter, test with the Stripe-Version header, and update webhook handlers. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to walk you through upgrading your Stripe integration to API version 2026-08-26.dahlia for your specific language and SDK setup.

Frequently Asked Questions about upgrade-stripe

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I upgrade my Stripe API version?▼

Review the API changelog for changes between versions, update your server-side SDK package, and set the apiVersion parameter in your Stripe client initialization. Test against the new version using the Stripe-Version header before switching your account default.

How do I test a new Stripe API version without changing my default?▼

Send requests with the Stripe-Version header set to the target version, such as 2026-08-26.dahlia, via curl or the apiVersion client option. This lets you validate behavior without modifying your account's default API version.

Should I set a custom API version for Stripe Java, Go, or .NET SDKs?▼

No. Strongly-typed SDKs pin a fixed API version matching the SDK release, and overriding it can cause response objects to mismatch the SDK's strong types. Upgrade the SDK package itself to target a newer API version.

Does Stripe.js versioning work independently from the API version?▼

No. Each Stripe.js major release, such as Dahlia or Acacia, automatically pairs with its corresponding API version, and you cannot override this association. Updating Stripe.js also moves you to its paired API version.

What counts as a breaking change in a Stripe API upgrade?▼

Breaking changes include field renames or removals, behavioral modifications, and removed endpoints or parameters. New resources, optional parameters, response properties, and webhook event types are backward-compatible and require no code changes.
