I create a payment link on my backend using the checkout API and the quick pay option and included a payment note. When I use the link to complete the payment, the payment note is not in the payload of the `payment.updated` webhook. I then go to retrieve the payment on Postman and it is also not in the response.

Is it safe to assume that this is only happening in sandbox mode and that the payment note will be in live mode?

👋 This is a known issue and only specific to sandbox. In production it works as expected. The team is working on fix for this that will be going out soon. 🙂
