Hello, good questions though I think I need more context. Creating the Standard account via the API and then directing your user to out onboarding flow via an AccountLink is typically the reccommended path here. Can you tell me about your usecase and why you want them to create a new account outside of your flow?
Is the way I am doing it in my code not correct? Because I thought I was doing what you described in the second sentence. Basically I want institutions that are on my application to be able to sell their own courses through our website. This is why they need to create a stripe connect account. What do you mean with outside my flow?
Your code is correct and is doing what I was describing. I thought you were trying to do something else
Are you already logged in to Stripe in the browser that you are testing this in?
That would make the onboarding page be a login page rather than a signup page
If you log out or test in your browser's private mode that should allow you to sign up on the onboarding page
I just tried this in a private browser and still had the same issue. When I afterwards checked stripe.com it said I need to log in to see the dashboard
So either I'm misunderstanding what you meant here or i think it might be a different issue :/
Can you create a new account link like that in test mode, not use it, and then send me your account ID in this thread? (acct_1234)
I can check out the account link, but the links are one-use, so when the link is sent over chat, the auto-expand functionality of Discord invalidates the link
account link: https://connect.stripe.com/setup/s/acct_1NpB6FIzTJPUDlcd/JYeg4bt9IAW6
account id: acct_1NpB6FIzTJPUDlcd
oh oops 1 sec

Like this, right?
Yep that helped. Interestingly, I am seeing the page for creating a new account
Are you seeing that as well? Or at that point is the page prompting you for a password as well
To be clear, are you seeing the same form as me initially and then it prompts for password after you put in that email?
If so, that is expected, logins are tied to email addresses and they are unique. So that would be Stripe attempting to connect this new account to an existing login.
If you put in a new email (even something like "alber+2@fuxam.de") that should get Stripe to prompt you for the info to create a new login
