Hi! What's your question?

solemn nymph Nov 8, 2022, 9:50 PM

#

does this work ?

novel helm Nov 8, 2022, 9:51 PM

#

What do you mean?

solemn nymph Nov 8, 2022, 9:52 PM

#

well, when should this webhook fire ? I have it set up, but it does not appear to be firing

#

do I set this on the account, or the connect

#

when I do a transfer to a connected account, I want to know when it has been placed in the connected account

#

Where are you seeing that event? As far as I know, there is only transer.updated, transfer.created, and transfer.reversed

#

Once a transfer is created, the balance of the Connect account is immediately affected. There isn't really a waiting period for these

that is why I am asking. If you go to the setup for webhooks, https://dashboard.stripe.com/webhooks/

Stripe Login | Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard

Sign in to the Stripe Dashboard to manage business payments and operations in your account. Manage payments and refunds, respond to disputes and more.

#

it is listed as a valid webhook event to send

#

Ahhhh, okay. I believe that was from a previous API version. Do you know what API version you're using?

solemn nymph Nov 8, 2022, 9:56 PM

#

how would I know ? I am using the java sdk

It's in the Developers overview page in Stripe dashboard: https://dashboard.stripe.com/developers

#

Yeah, so I wouldn't worry about that webhook then

solemn nymph Nov 8, 2022, 10:00 PM

#

the thing is that I need to know if the transfer has completed. Are you saying that I have no way to know if my transfer has completed ?

novel helm Nov 8, 2022, 10:03 PM

#

transfer.created will only ever fire if the Transfer was successful. It completes instantly because it's being transferred between 2 Stripe account balances. There aren't any edge-cases where transfer.created fires and the funds do not land in the connected account's balance, so you can treat it as if it were transfer.paid or transfer.completed

solemn nymph Nov 8, 2022, 10:05 PM

#

what if the transfer is dependent of a associated charge ? I am doing that to make sure I do not transfer the money until the funds are avaiable

#

using the source_transaction field on the transfer

novel helm Nov 8, 2022, 10:13 PM

#

As far as I know, there's no such thing as a source_transaction that didn't result in money-movement, so the funds for the charge should always be in the balance. That being said, they could be pending in that balance, so it's best to check it before attempting to create a transfer
