About me: software developer who is into JavaScript and NodeJS and constantly working on one or another side project and/or open source. I have a blog at https://alex-rudenko.com
I see that Stripe API uses "Idempotency IDs" which allows the client to tell the server "Hey, this POST request is idempotent, treat it as such"
To perform an idempotent request, provide an additional Idempotency-Key: header to the request.
How you create unique keys is up to you, but we suggest using V4 UUIDs or another appropriately random string. We'll always send back the same response for requests made with the same key, and keys can't be reused with different request parameters. Keys expire after 24 hours.
Have you ever dealt with the problem of duplicate requests yourself? If so, how?
Yep, but using request ids, not really handy.
