How to retrieve Stripe Webhook post data into $request

Hello Ladies and Gents, I need help with this. I have a Stripe Webhook that posts to a route within my app. This is assigned to a controller, at the moment I am just trying to log what I get to confirm I am getting the right information before I submit to my DB, my goal is to take this information and create a user so I'd like to get $request->name, $request->email, etc. But those return null, the current code on my controller functions returns Array to string conversion error. Any help on how to navigate through the json to get the data I need? Also I see Cashier already pulled in the Stripe class, is there a way to use functions from that class? Do have I have to use include(Stripe....) or is there a provider and facade for it? Thank you in advance Controller:

public function newcustomer(Request $request){
       $created = $request->created;
       $customer = $request->only('customer');
        Log::info('Webhook : '.$created . ' and ' . $customer);
    }

I did dd($request) and was able to get the following json response :
