# Webhook missing date_created_gmt

 * When completing a test purchase through my actual WooCommerce checkout page using
   a Stripe test card, should the webhook payload always contain a populated date_created_gmt
   value and billing email? I had one test where both appeared empty — is this a
   known issue with WooCommerce test orders?

 * Hi [@billbobong147](https://wordpress.org/support/users/billbobong147/)!
 * Thank you for sharing the details of your test scenario.
 * In WooCommerce, fields like `date_created_gmt` and billing email are part of 
   the order data stored by WooCommerce and are normally included when the order
   is created through checkout. Test purchases using Stripe test cards follow the
   same order creation flow as live payments, so this behavior is not specific to
   test mode.
 * If you are seeing an instance where both values appear empty, that is not expected
   under normal order creation and may depend on the context in which the webhook
   payload is being viewed or how/when the webhook is being triggered.
 * To help narrow this down, could you please confirm where exactly this webhook
   is configured?
 * Is it a WooCommerce Webhook (created inside your WordPress dashboard under **
   WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → Webhooks**)?
 * Or is it a Stripe Webhook (created inside your Stripe Developer Dashboard pointing
   to your site)?
 * Once we know this, we’ll be able to investigate more accurately.
