Hi 👋 it sounds like you're looking for the source_transaction parameter, this section of our documentation talks about using it:

I also use it, but have the same issue. Maybe there is some other way to move money between connected accounts

I'm not sure I'm following, lets circle back to your original post. When you say "but in case of insufficient funds it throws an exception", is that when you're trying to create the Transfer?

Yes that's right.For example I make a charge, for 10 dollars from {account-from}, it has -10 dollars on the balance. On platform account, this money goes into "Held in reserve". Then I try to make a transfer and an error occurs

Can you share an example of where you saw that behavior when using the source_transaction parameter? That parameter is intended to avoid that specific scenario. It associates the pending Transfer with the inbound payment, and waits for the payment to fully settle (to ensure funds are available) before processing the Transfer.
