hello! https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-amount_capturable - it's the amount you can capture after the customer has authorized the payment https://stripe.com/docs/payments/place-a-hold-on-a-payment-method

Let me know if I'm understanding this wrong. Let's say I set amount to 10 amount_capturable to 20. This charges 10, but lets me be able to charge 10 more if needed?

you can't set amount_capturable, that's a a read-only field.

You set the amount you want to hold in https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-amount

you can't overcapture i.e. capture more than the amount specified unless you meet certain criteria set by the networks. For example, you have to be in a certain industry / business
