Assumption is this:

Changing the service agreement type will fail if the service agreement has already been accepted; in those cases, create a new account with the desired service agreement.

You can't update the TOS of an onboarded account

@upbeat bear so the solution is to ask the user to create a new account?

Also when I create an onboarding link (from my Stripe Connect dashboard) how can I check the TOS type the user will be accepting?

Is the account is already onboarded? If the account is already onboarded, then creating a new account is the only way

[night wolf]

Onboarding link should be created using API, not dashboard

[sage wadi]

What's the definition of onboarded? The user already uploaded all the document required by Stripe for verification. So I guess the account is onboarded

[sage wadi]

@night wolf is this the correct API? https://stripe.com/docs/api/account_links

[night wolf]

Yup, then the account is onboarded

[night wolf]

Yup, this is the correct API

Can you explain what you would like to achieve?

[sage wadi]

Yeah sure @night wolf . We are building a marketplace. In a nutshell our platform creates invoices on behalf of our connected accounts. We would like to use express accounts. So what I am trying to do is to onboard a user with tos set to full so the user can accept payments via cards

@night wolf how can I make sure that an account has been onboarded already?

[night wolf]

Could you share the connected account ID?

Generally you'd check charges_enabled and payouts_enabled: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/identity-verification-api#determining-if-identity-or-business-verification-is-needed
