IM trying to retrieve a customer to save their payment details for future payments

the customer ID is the cus_NhJH.... string right?

[graceful hare]

Hi, what does your request to save the Payment Method look like?

Yes, the customer is would start wit cus_

[ripe ginkgo]

this is my server side function for creating the payment intent

  const items = req.body;

  const { total, fee } = calculateOrderAmount(items);

  //retrieves the customer based on the user ID
  const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(
    'cus_NhJHZYH5HcMDja'
  );

   // Generate an ephemeral key for the customer
   const ephemeralKey = await stripe.ephemeralKeys.create(
    { customer: customer.id },
    { apiVersion: '2020-08-27', stripeAccount: 'acct_1MsyJPCWAlRghLO7' }
  );


    // Create a PaymentIntent with the order amount and currency
    const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
      amount: total,
      currency: 'usd',
      application_fee_amount: fee,
      customer: customer.id,
      setup_future_usage: 'off_session',
      automatic_payment_methods: {
        enabled: true,
      },
    }, {
      stripeAccount: 'acct_1MsyJPCWAlRghLO7',
    });

   

    // Return the necessary information to the client
    res.send({
      customer: customer.id,
      ephemeralKey: ephemeralKey.secret,
      paymentIntent: paymentIntent.client_secret,
      publishableKey: 'pk_test_51MSCbfJMYkCh6QmLjYSQLK5gPtmLvaUMn0KrXsbFVnqVROCRere3kLrAQnKOT2Uepb5fRqv34vjgNAArl8wzPwWd00OoOZlDFj' // replace with your own publishable key
    });
});```

I think you want to look at this guide, https://stripe.com/docs/payments/save-during-payment?platform=web#create-the-paymentintent

You'd need to specify: setup_future_usage: : https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/create#create_payment_intent-setup_future_usage to save the payment method during a payment.

Let me see what im doing wrong just a moment

  const items = req.body;

  const { total, fee } = calculateOrderAmount(items);

  //retrieves the customer based on the user ID
  const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(
    'cus_NhJHZYH5HcMDja'
  );

   // Generate an ephemeral key for the customer
   const ephemeralKey = await stripe.ephemeralKeys.create(
    { customer: customer.id },
    { apiVersion: '2020-08-27', stripeAccount: 'acct_1MsyJPCWAlRghLO7' }
  );


    // Create a PaymentIntent with the order amount and currency
    const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
      amount: total,
      currency: 'usd',
      application_fee_amount: fee,
      customer: customer.id,
      setup_future_usage: 'on_session',
      automatic_payment_methods: {
        enabled: true,
      },
    }, {
      stripeAccount: 'acct_1MsyJPCWAlRghLO7',
    });

    // Return the necessary information to the client
    res.send({
      customer: customer.id,
      ephemeralKey: ephemeralKey.secret,
      paymentIntent: paymentIntent.client_secret,
      publishableKey: 'pk_test_51MSCbfJMYkCh6QmLjYSQLK5gPtmLvaUMn0KrXsbFVnqVROCRere3kLrAQnKOT2Uepb5fRqv34vjgNAArl8wzPwWd00OoOZlDFj' // replace with your own publishable key
    });
});```

this is the code

the error im getting is that a user with that ID does not exist even though i sent you the picture of the user daniel with that ID

Error: No such customer: 'cus_NhJHZYH5HcMDja'

[ripe ginkgo]

THis the user im testing with

[graceful hare]

Can you share the request id for this error please

[ripe ginkgo]

yes

req_QC6kjae9M7rVoD

[graceful hare]

That is because the customer, cus_NhJHZYH5HcMDja is created, https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_0PLwqLf52VE7ik on your account ending in QmL. Meanwhile, this request is being made on the connected account ending in LO7.

If you make the same request directly on your account, QmL it should work.

[ripe ginkgo]

How would I do that im confused

and thank you for your help by the way!

const customerId = 'cus_NhJHZYH5HcMDja';
const accountId = 'acct_1MsyJPCWAlRghLO7';

const customer = await stripe.customers.retrieve(customerId, {
  stripeAccount: accountId
});

is this fix sort of what youre talking about?

[graceful hare]

You use the API key from your QmL account, and make that request

There is an example code here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/retrieve

[ripe ginkgo]

youre talking about the publishable key right?

Also I think im getting confused because im trying to save the customers payment detail, but im using multi party payments. Is it possible to save card details while using connect to facilitate online orders for a restaurant

[graceful hare]

You should use the secret key: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/retrieve

Yes, you can use the Stripe Account header: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication to make these calls. I recommend that you read through this document and start fresh from creating the customer with the account header.

Can you try that please?

[ripe ginkgo]

yes thank you
