👋 @fringe basalt do you have an example PaymentIntent id I can look at?

if the full url helps here is it:
https://dashboard.stripe.com/acct_103GfL2u61NOe905/test/connect/accounts/acct_1NzRsOBI9pDZFXKz/payments/pi_3NziNpBI9pDZFXKz1AfgYIFN

#

So i am creating a payment intent with these attributes:

 Stripe::PaymentIntent.create({
  amount:
  currency:
  automatic_payment_methods { enabled: true }
  description:
  reciept_email:
  application_fee: 
}
{ stripe_account: }
)

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:14 PM

#

Okay so that creates the PaymentIntent on a connected account, it's what we call the Direct Charge flow: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/direct-charges

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:16 PM

#

Yeah, i had the events working when I had on_behalf_of and transfer_data: {destination: but that was making the charges go to our account and then we would payout the connected accounts. Which is not ideal

#

the event payment_intent.succeeded was coming back to us as well

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:19 PM

#

So the PaymentIntent is on the connected account so all data/Events live there

#

You need to create a Connect WebhookEndpoint to listen to Events on the connected accounts. See https://stripe.com/docs/connect/webhooks

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:20 PM

#

gotcha!

#

thanks Koopajah!

#

could you take a look at the webhook I have now?
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/webhooks/we_1NEHQm2u61NOe905WehlDcWT
doesn't seem to be working as expected

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:26 PM

#

What's not working?

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

each event has this error:
No such notification: 'evt_`

#

No such notification: 'evt_3Nzij4BI9pDZFXKz1kPyeLlZ'

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:27 PM

#

The Event lives on the connected account. Not your own account.

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

so do i need to go to each connected account and create webhook for each one?

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

No you need to pause and think for a bit about the overall integration, you're rushing fast without really understnding it yet

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

cause i created this webhook https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/webhooks/we_1NEHQm2u61NOe905WehlDcWT
and the endpoint says connect

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

When you create a PaymentIntent, what does your code do to clearly indicate "hey please do this on the connected account"?

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

on the server side
const stripe = Stripe('<%= ENV['STRIPE_PUBLIC_KEY']%>', stripeAccount: stripe_account)
those variables are valid

then when i create the PaymentIntent i add the stripe account here too

Stripe::PaymentIntent.create(
{
amount: ,
currency: ,
automatic_payment_methods: {
enabled: true
},
description: ,
receipt_email: ,
application_fee_amount: ,
},
{ stripe_account: stripe_account }
)

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

yeah that's just code though

#

I'm asking you, as the developer, what you understand of this. Which part of that code is special and explicitly saying "please do this on the connected account"

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

well in both the Ruby and JavaScript code, the actions performed seem to be associated with the specific Stripe connected account using the stripe_account parameter.
In the Ruby code:

# The Stripe API request is made with a specified connected account using stripe_account parameter.
payment_intent = Stripe::PaymentIntent.create(
  # ... the params i sent to you earlier
  { stripe_account: stripe_account }  # This specifies the connected account
)

Then in the JS

const stripeOptions = {};
/ the cosnt stripe_account is set via the form
if (stripe_account) {
  stripeOptions.stripeAccount = `${stripe_account}`;
}
const stripe = Stripe('<%= ENV['STRIPE_PUBLIC_KEY']%>', stripeOptions);

I hope that answers your question, sorry i know you're having to help a lot of people

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

@fringe basalt I'm really just teaching you to fish here

#

Okay so now you say

the actions performed seem to be associated with the specific Stripe connected account using the stripe_account parameter.

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

dude i really appreciate it.

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

the Event evt_123 is on the connected account: what should you do to retrieve it since it's on that connected account?

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

ohhh shit!

#

i think i get it!

#

so in my webhooks controller that i have the redirect set up for, I'm trying to grab the event

 event = Stripe::Event.retrieve(event_id)

but i think what you're trying to get me to realize is i need to pass in the account_id associated with the event!

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

Every time you make an API request you have to think "am I doing this on my own (platform) account, or on a connected account?" and based on that, pass the right connected account id

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

so...
event = Stripe::Event.retrieve(event_id, connected_account)

wooden mulch Oct 10, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

yeah it's more complex than ^, it's not just a parameter, it's two separate hashes. See https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication#authentication-via-the-stripe-account-header

fringe basalt Oct 10, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

thank you so much Koopajah

#
