#

@fair umbra yes that means you are a Connect platform and you try to create an account on one of your connected accounts

fair umbra
#

thanks, I figured. Thing is that I'm using my connect account for my woocommerce stripe payments gateway and then the same secret key for another plugin to let my marketplace vendors create connect accounts with.... and I keep getting that error

gentle vale
#

yeah you can't use that same key. You need to get the key from your API keys in your own Dashboard instead

fair umbra
#

but I only see one set of keys

gentle vale
#

Sorry those are just pictures with no info

#

If you use the Secret API key you see in the Dashboard, it will work fine

fair umbra
#

I'm saying that's the only secret api key I have -- it doesnt look like there's one set for a standard account and another for connect

#

so i've only put that one key in both spots and get that error

gentle vale
#

Unfortunately, this means you aren't setting the API key properly in those plugins but I can't really tell why. I'd recommend talking to the devs of both plugins to figure out what is causing this issue and they can help you

fair umbra
#

but should there be two different sets of api keys?

#

or is there one set and that set is the same set i should be putting into both plugins?

gentle vale
#

Usually WooCommerce has their own flow for collecting keys. Also usually you have 2 separate Stripe accounts for this

fair umbra
#

ahh okay so i should have two separate stripe accounts for this...

#

Because I got a stripe account, and then I set up connect.... and then now I have one api key....

#

so instead I should have one stripe account for woocommerce to collect payments and then create and entirely different stripe connect account for the vendor payouts?

gentle vale
#

Well no, that would never work if the vendor payouts are supposed to come from the woocommerce payment

#

Please, work with the developers of your plugin. I'm sorry, I want to help, but this seems to be some advanced set up linked to your plugins which I would know nothing abbout here unfortunately

fair umbra
#

theyre not. woocommerce is how I accept payments, the other plugin and connect is how I payout the vendors

#

okay, thanks
