Tutorial - Build an Invoicing App Using the API #25
Description
Problem
Developers who want to build custom invoicing solutions using the Request Network API need a comprehensive tutorial showing how to implement core invoicing functionality from scratch.
Proposed Solution
Create a tutorial covering:
- Setup and API key configuration
- Creating invoices via API
- Processing payments with call data
- Implementing webhook listeners for payment notifications
- Querying invoices for dashboard views
- Optional: conversion payments, batch payments, recurring invoices
Considerations
- Should be framework-agnostic or focus on popular stack (Node.js/Express, Next.js, Python)
- Include working code examples for all core features
- Cover production considerations: error handling, webhook security, custom metadata storage
- Link from "View Invoicing Examples" card on
