How to retrieve customers by email in node.js (Stripe)

I have this:

const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(
  '[email protected]'
);

I'm trying to get the customer number (id) of the customer based on the email address. Is this possible through stripe? It gives me an error when I do this.

Using "list()" and "search()", you can get customers by email with these Node.js code below:

const customers = await stripe.customers.list({
  email:"[email protected]",
});

const customers = await stripe.customers.search({
  query:"email:'[email protected]'",
});

You can also limit customers to get with "limit" parameter as shown below:

const customers = await stripe.customers.list({
  email:"[email protected]",
  limit: 3,
});

const customers = await stripe.customers.search({
  query:"email:'[email protected]'",
  limit: 3,
});

You will need to use https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/list and it will return a list of customers with that particular email address.

const customers = await stripe.customers.list({
  email: '[email protected]',
});

Note that there is a limit on the number of objects to be returned. You should make use of auto pagination in case there is a large number of customers with the same email.
