# Adds permissions parameter to Checkout Sessions ## What’s new Adds the [permissions](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md?api-version=2025-03-31.basil#create_checkout_session-permissions) parameter to the Checkout Session object. This allows you to configure a property on the Session to be only be set by the server. ## Impact When [permissions.update_shipping_details](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/create.md?api-version=2025-03-31.basil#create_checkout_session-permissions-update_shipping_details) is set to `server_only`, all changes to the Session’s shipping details must go through the [Update Checkout Session](https://docs.stripe.com/api/checkout/sessions/update.md?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) method. With this change, you can support [dynamically updating shipping options in Checkout](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/checkout/custom-shipping-options.md) or perform your own shipping address validation. ## Changes #### REST API | Parameter | Change | Resources or endpoints | | ------------- | ------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `permissions` | Added | [Checkout.Session#create](/api/checkout/sessions/create?api-version=2025-03-31.basil), [Checkout.Session](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | #### Ruby This change does not affect the Ruby SDK. #### Python | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------- | | `permissions` | Added | `CheckoutSession`, `checkout.Session.CreateParams` | #### PHP | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `permissions` | Added | [Checkout.Session](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | #### Java | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `permissions` | Added | [Checkout.Session](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil), [checkout.SessionCreateParams](/api/checkout/sessions/create?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | #### Node.js | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `permissions` | Added | [Checkout.SessionCreateParams](/api/checkout/sessions/create?api-version=2025-03-31.basil), [Checkout.Session](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | #### Go | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `Permissions` | Added | [CheckoutSessionParams](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil), [CheckoutSession](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | #### .NET | Parameter | Change | Resources or methods | | ------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Permissions` | Added | [Checkout.SessionCreateOptions](/api/checkout/sessions/create?api-version=2025-03-31.basil), [CheckoutSession](/api/checkout/sessions/object?api-version=2025-03-31.basil) | ## Upgrade #### REST API 1.
