The Stripe integration for Schematic allows you to sync billing data from Stripe and map it to company profiles in Schematic. This provides a complete company view, showing not only product access and feature usage, but also subscription-level data.
The integration allows you to use data from Stripe to define plan audiences and flag rules. For example, you can create an audience of all companies subscribed to your “Premium” plan in Stripe. All companies subscribed to Premium in Stripe will then get the correct entitlements in your product.
Why use the integration?
See a unified company profile combining account, usage, and billing data in one place
Use existing billing data to directly assign entitlements to your customers
Manage customer lifecycle automatically - when a subscription changes, entitlements will change via Schematic
v1.0 is our first major version release; prior to this release, the library only exposed bindings for our APIs, whereas now it supports more robust capabilities for common operations like checking flags and submitting events. Additionally, we've added some functionality to better support usage in non-production environments and testing.
Major releases
Flag check caching interface with built-in/default in-memory local cache
Event buffering for non-blocking submission of events
Support for "offline mode", for use in lower environments and testing
Mocks for use in testing
Usage sidebars
See feature usage detail and company activity detail with a handy sidebar view.
Bulk entitlements
Add entitlements to a plan in bulk to save time and model your packaging faster.
Use the audit log to a view of everything happening in Schematic, key use cases:
Generating a log of changes to a company’s feature access for compliance
Troubleshooting an issue, looking for a change tied to a time period within which a bug appeared
Track changes to customer traits, entitlements, and plan membership over time
Track changes to flags, features, and plans over time
Invite new users and specify what permissions they have within Schematic. Given the sensitive nature of feature management, control permissions granularly by environment.
