Hi there, I'm building a marketplace platform and am trying to integrate Stripe Connect.

I'm trying to organize my stripe connect environment to allow users to become "express users" on connect when they become a "creator" on my platform.

Additionally I'm having a bug when connecting my api and it's starting to confuse me because I've reentered the info like 30 times. I'll include the api call and bug screenshots below

Body format for Stripe POST operations

I'm accessing the stripe API directly with the REST API (not using a library) but, surprisingly, I can't find documentation on the appropriate body format post data.

Does Stripe expect JSON or form-

#

You're sending the body as json

#

It has to be form encoded

Form-data?

woeful isle Jul 25, 2022, 7:41 PM

#

atomic nymph Jul 25, 2022, 7:41 PM

Result from "form-data"

Not sure what tool you are using

#

But you have to send the body as application/x-www-form-urlencoded

#

I don't understand

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Methods/POST#:~:text=application/x-www,form-data instead)

POST - HTTP | MDN

The HTTP POST method sends data to the server. The type of the body of the request is indicated by the Content-Type header.

What's the solution so I can Initiate the call

#

Like I said. You need to pass the body as application/x-www-form-urlencoded. I don't know what tool you are using to make these requests, so I can't advise how to do that in that specific tool though

https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-accounts

Using Connect with Express accounts

Express enables your platform to manage payout schedules, customize the flow of funds, and control branding. Stripe will handle onboarding, account management, and identity verification for your platform.

#

I'm using Bubble.io

woeful isle Jul 25, 2022, 8:11 PM

#

Just googled. Apparently that tool doesn't support sending requests via application/x-www-form-urlencoded

#

Ah there's a workaround: https://forum.bubble.io/t/application-x-www-form-urlencoded-error/77001/5

Bubble Forum

Application/x-www-form-urlencoded Error

It does support it. Try: Adding the header directly to the call rather than in the “shared headers” area Checking the “querystring” option in your parameters Cheers, Gaby Coaching No Code Apps Join our Facebook group for insider access to no-code development Get professional development services Enroll in expert-led courses and prod...

#

does this look correct

woeful isle Jul 25, 2022, 8:15 PM

#

No. Follow the directions I linked. You'll need to also check querystring
