How are local invoices created in laravel spark?

I have successfully setup spark on my local machine it works perfectly. I have added various plan, which users are able to subscribe by making the payment. But the invoice section does not show me any invoice which should be created when a user buy's a plan. Am I missing something? I mean there is no way to see the previous invoices or receipts which user have already paid for. Moreover in DB invoice table is also empty.

To generate invoices in Spark you will need to set up Webhooks for Stripe or Braintree.

Webhooks

In order to display a list of your customer's invoices, you must configure the appropriate webhooks on Stripe or Braintree.

Stripe webhooks should be configured to point to the /webhook/stripe URI. The Braintree subscription_canceled, subscription_charged_successfully, and subscription_expired webhook events should be configured to point to /webhook/braintree URI.

Setting up Stripe Endpoints

  1. You can set up your Stripe Webhooks from this url https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/webhooks or by simply logging into the dashboard and clicking Developer > Webhooks

  2. Create the Endpoint by clicking "+Add Endpoint".

  3. Enter in your Endpoint in the URL to be called field, for example https://example.com/webhooks/stripe

  4. When finished, it should look like this:

endpoints

Make sure you are setting web hooks for test and not live!

I use ngrok to test my webhooks locally, but if you use Laravel valet you can run $ valet share

View Invoices

After the webhook endpoints are set up, and a user is billed, the invoice will show up properly in the users Settings page under Invoices:
