I mean, I don’t want to ask some info like support phone number
Im creating an affiliate program using Connect
Affiliates won’t give support
To my users
So I don’t want them to fill a support phone number

That's a requirement though to provide this information. You can prefill information via the API when you create the Account first so that we don't ask your customers for it though

What other onboarding info can I do this same prefill thing?
frail knot
👋 stepping in as koopajah needed to step away
Which types of accounts are you working with?
jolly eagle
Standard
My affiliates will create standard accounts only
Which are free
I would like to make the affiliate onboarding as short as possible
If I ask for several info, people will refuse to finish the onboarding
frail knot
Gotcha, well you can prefill most things with Standard except for stuff like their email/pw for login and their ToS which they are required to accept via the onboarding form. You can see the different parameters you can add to your account creation here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/accounts/create
jolly eagle
When I prefill the support number, for example, the affiliates won’t even see the phone number field?
Or what?
frail knot
Correct it should only ask them for the info that hasn't been pre-filled
jolly eagle
Ok
Is it possible to reset or delete products that have no transactions related to them?
frail knot
Only if it has no Prices. See: https://stripe.com/docs/api/products/delete
Otherwise you archive it
(set active=false)
jolly eagle
Why can’t I delete if there are no transactions?
frail knot
Because that is how our API works
jolly eagle
So I can’t also change the price of a payment link?
frail knot
You can update the Price associated to a Payment Link, yes.
Hmm actually sorry
We might only let you update quantity
Let me double check
jolly eagle
Ok thanks
frail knot
Alright actually looks like you can only update the Price used on a Payment Link if it is created and updated via the Dashboard
I'm surprised we don't support this via the API (I'll put in a feature request to get this added)
jolly eagle
actually the price is blocked in my dashboard
frail knot
Yeah you can't update Prices
You would have to create a new Price
Prices are immutable
frail knot
I already answered that above
frail knot
You can either set a default config via your Dashboard at: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/settings/billing/portal or you can create config's via the API (https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/configurations/create) where you can specify Products within subscription_update: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_portal/configurations/create?lang=node#create_portal_configuration-features-subscription_update-products
jolly eagle
Ok, will craete via API
about language, onboarding page language and payment page language are automatically defined?
frail knot
Yep they will be automatically localized
jolly eagle
ok
Is there any place in the Dashboard to see what types of Connect accounts my affiliates are able to create?
My other developer said he defined, via API, that only standard accounts can be created
frail knot
You create the accounts via the API yourself so you control what types are created
jolly eagle
ok
