So account links aren't really meant to be used for Standard accounts once they've onboarded to Stripe

#

If there's a verification issue/account update needed, Standard account holders can just log into the Stripe Dashboard to correct them

#

So the above error only began once you switched to Standard accounts or are you saying this was somehow working even with Standard accounts?

It did seem to be working with standard accounts for the first 10min or so

#

I was able to click my Update account button and was taken to a stripe page where I could input my email and password

west swift
#

Ok and that's with type set to embedded_popup_auth? I haven't actually heard of that account link type, and I don't see it in the docs. Where did you find that?

In an error I got from the Stripe API when I tried to create an account link of type 'account_update.' Here is the error: StripeInvalidRequestError: Invalid type: must be one of ["account_onboarding", "embedded_popup_auth", "embedded_popup_onboarding"]

#

The case I'm trying to accommodate here is where they've created a stripe account but haven't completed it, so payouts_enabled=false. I figured account_onboarding was no good because they've already created a username and password, I've already saved their stripe account ID on my side, they have an "account" -- it's just not complete

west swift
#

Ok. I can check with a colleague what embedded_popup_auth is but I don't think it's meant to be used how you're using it

#

Standard accounts are not meant to be updated through account links

#

Once the account holder has gone through the initial onboarding, any updates should be done within the Standard dashboard

coral topaz
#

so I should just give them a generic stripe URL that lets them sign onto the dashboard?

west swift
#

Yep

coral topaz
#

also thank you !!

west swift
#

No problem

#

Asking a colleague about what embedded_popup_auth is. Do you have a request id where you got the StripeInvalidRequestError: Invalid type: must be one of ["account_onboarding", "embedded_popup_auth", "embedded_popup_onboarding"] error?

Thanks

#

Ok so that type is for an embedded account onboarding flow

#

Also not related to standard accounts/account updates

#

Just in case you were curious

#

My previous recommendation around sending them to the dashboard still is what you need to do

coral topaz
#

Thank you!!! Will do. It looks like I could theoretically use this embedded account thing to display stripe dashboard functionality (for standard accounts) within my site if I wanted to. does that sound right? sorry will leave you alone after this..

west swift
#

AFAIk, no. That's just for embedded onboarding. I don't really know much about it though, so do recommend reaching out to our support team if you do have a use-case/want for embedding onboarding on your site: https://support.stripe.com.
