Can't access Metadata in handleWebhookNotification

[PatricGithub]

My function results in Verbindung zum Webhook ist mit Status-Code 500 ist fehlgeschlagen (Internal Server Error). the original lines of code worked, however this one not. I would be happy for a helping hand.

public function handleWebhookNotification(Request $request) {
    $paymentId = $request->input('id');   
    $payment = Mollie::api()->payments->get($paymentId);
    $metadata = $payment->metadata;
    $rechnungsnummer = $metadata['rechnungsnummer'];

    if ($payment->isPaid()) { 
        $payload = json_decode($request->getContent(), true);

        if (isset($payload['metadata']['rechnungsnummer'])) {
            $rechnungsnummer = $payload['metadata']['rechnungsnummer'];
            DB::table('appointments')
            ->where('rechnungsnummer', '=', $rechnungsnummer) 
            ->update(['paid' => 'yes']);

            DB::table('bills')
            ->where('rechnungsnummer', $rechnungsnummer)
            ->update(['paid' => 'yes']);
        } else {
            // Handle the case where "rechnungsnummer" is not present in the payload
        }
    } 
}

Can you check your laravel.log file? It probably contains the error message.

@Psychology4me the payment is an object and not an array. I guess the data in the payload variable is an object instead of an array. Can you verify this?

[PatricGithub]

I can confirm this was indeed the mistake. Here is the final code for future references:

public function handleWebhookNotification(Request $request) {
        $paymentId = $request->input('id');
        $payment = Mollie::api()->payments->get($paymentId);
        $metadata = $payment->metadata;
        $rechnungsnummer = $metadata->rechnungsnummer;

        if ($payment->isPaid()) {
                 DB::table('appointments')
                ->where('rechnungsnummer', '=', $rechnungsnummer)
                ->update(['paid' => 'paid']);
        } else{
}

Maybe provide additional examples in your example section for "coders new to mollie and laravel". (like me) I had to switch from svelte to laravel to make mollie work :) Anyhow, thank you for the great tip with the logs!
