I created a payment intent with transfer_data set using the original amount-500 and set the destination as another connect account ID, but I either don't know how to view the transfer on the Stripe dashboard or it didn't work.

It does work in test mode

Not dashboard experts in here, so not sure where to view on the dashboard exactly

But if you log in as the connect account you should see it somehwere

Ok, I'll play around a bit and see if I can find it.

But I would also like some clarification.
If I have an original charge amount of 20 (2000 cents/pence/etc)
and I set the transfer_data.amount to 2000-500
1500 is what is sent to the the transfer_data.destination, right? Or is it the other way around?

Meaning 1500 is sent to destination and 500 is sent to the platform stripe account?

[forest current]

Correct

Connect would get 1500

Platform would get 500 minus any fees

Ok, cool. Would you mind taking a look at the payment intent I made for me?

Checking the request logs and it didn't apply the transfer_data in the request when using stripe.paymentIntents.create()

Can you share the payment intent id?

Not sure why, but here is my code as well:

return stripe.paymentIntents.create({
        amount,
        currency: 'gbp',
        customer: customerId,
        payment_method: paymentMethodId,
        metadata: {
            cardBrand: card.brand,
            cardLast4: card.last4,
            paymentId: platform.paymentId,
            uid: platform.uid
        },
        transfer_data: {
            amount: amount-500,
            destination: toAccountId
        }
    })

And the request parameters from the Stripe dashboard that the API actually received (all test data):

{
  "currency": "gbp",
  "payment_method": "pm_1NdIUxHuV3Y4v6TIIBKR6qUq",
  "metadata": {
    "cardLast4": "3238",
    "cardBrand": "Visa",
    "uid": "xQSln9rCg2AqaggS59NX",
    "paymentId": "2iWGS0PiaRmUWp8xEJIY"
  },
  "amount": "5000",
  "customer": "cus_OQ8iZNrefwmc5E"
}

Yeah from our end it appears as if you never sent transfer_data

Can you add some more log statements in your code?

like store the result of creating the payment intent in a variable above and print out the contents

[fast lynx]

In which state would you want it. Created on backend or confirmed on frontend?

[forest current]

backend

That's where you're trying to pass transfer_data

[fast lynx]

Sure, just one minute

Actually, think I just found the issue

[forest current]

Oh ok cool

What was it

[fast lynx]

I'm using grouped firebase functions and there was a mix up on front-end between creating a normal intent and one with a transfer

So it looked like it was working because technically it was, but just as a normal platform payment

[forest current]

Ah ok I see

Glad you got it sorted

[fast lynx]

Yep, just dingbot helping a dingbat 😅 In any case, thanks for your help!
