Get records of all new customers for each day from stripe and store in MYSQL database

Question

I am required to get the records of all the customers in a day from Stripe and store the records in the MySQL database table. I am able to fetch the records from Stripe and can store them in the table too. However, I want the task to be automatic and get the task done at a specific time in a day. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Are you open to the idea of implementing a simple application that Stripe can send webhook events to? If so, you can listen to the customer.created event. This way you can add a new record in your database as soon as a Customer is created.

If not, use the List all Customers API and supply the created parameter: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/list#list_customers-created but this will be slightly more tedious as you'll need to paginate, since you can only retrieve 100 Customers per API call. To paginate, supply the starting_after and ending_before parameters. You'll also need to configure your cronjob to run at the timing that you desire.
