Hey @remote arch let me have a look

[remote arch]

sure, let me know if you need extra information

[forest scaffold]

You appear to be a Connect platform creating Checkout Session directly on your connected accounts

[remote arch]

yes that is true

[forest scaffold]

so the Session lives on the connected account. So when you want to retrieve it or list its line items you have to explicitly tell us which account you're making the request on

like https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication#authentication-via-the-stripe-account-header

[remote arch]

Okay i see, but how do I get the connected acount id on the webhook?

or would it be better if I didnt use configure the webhook to be connected?

didn't* configure

[forest scaffold]

The Event has the account property that tells you which account the Event is from https://stripe.com/docs/api/events/object#event_object-account

And you have to use a Connect webhook endpoint since you are using Direct Charges and creating the Session on the connected account

[remote arch]

That worked! thanks a lot, you've been super helpful

there is one more thing that I am having issues with

I want to send an email to this connected account from which the event was triggered but cannot seem to be able to retrieve the email address

const account = await stripe.accounts.retrieve(
stripeEvent.account
);

this is the function that I used to retrieve the account

and account.email returns undefined

do you know what am i doing wrong here?

[forest scaffold]

yeah you can't access that information

you'll have to collect the email yourself separately, we don't surface it in the API for Standard accounts

[remote arch]

okay, i understand

well that was it then, thank you again for your help

and have a nice evening!
