To obtain Stripe credentials more detailedly:
-
Create/Log into Your Stripe Account: If you're new, sign up at Stripe's website. Existing users can log in.
-
Access the Dashboard: Once inside your Stripe account, navigate to the dashboard.
-
Locate API Keys: In the dashboard, find the 'Developers' section in the sidebar. Under this, click on 'API Keys'.

API Keys Details: Here, you'll find two types of keys:
- Publishable Key: Used in client-side code.

Test and Live Modes: Stripe provides separate keys for testing ('Test' mode) and real transactions ('Live' mode). Use 'Test' keys for development and switch to 'Live' keys for real transactions.
