Are you trying to debug why this happens in your code? Or are you trying to look in to these specific pre-auths? To look in to those specific pre-auths I would reccommend reaching out to our support team https://support.stripe.com/?contact=true

I suspect the strategy I'm using is probably flawed but I do have a specific example
Would you mind describing that strategy? Happy to help if I can
sure thanks
We have a pre-auth process that essentially validates the card and the funds available at the time of checkout but then we want to release the hold just after verifying
we're using stripe connect and I can explain more about the 'why' we do that if you want but the above is what I'm trying to accomplish
so I generate a payment intent and if it's ok, I cancel the intent
I'm wondering if the way I'm trying to release the intent is perhaps the issue
in the logs I see 2 transactions (1 to create the intent and one to cancel it)
today I received a screen shot from this customers bank showing 2 auths for the same amount from us
If it is two separate auths that placed separate holds on their funds, that sounds like it would be two separate PaymentIntents that were created and confirmed here
Do you have the ID for the PaymentIntent that was involved in this for this specific Customer?
Thank you, and was the other auth on the statement from pretty much the same time?
yep and the amount was the same
the screen shot doesn't show the time but this was from earlier today
it does show the date as today for both
if you want to see the entire customer history in stripe, this is the cust id: cus_OheVnWzUpoR46t
All of the events listed with today's date are related to my intent/cancel chain
Interesting, I only see who payments on that customer. Were the auths for the same amount on the statement?
yes they were and they both have today's date
we've only just switched over to stripe about a week ago. That's why there are so few trans
They both list us as the merchant and both have today's date with the same amount 4479.58
my best guess is that my canel isn't setup correctly perhaps and it's causing some banks to treat it as a new hold rather than a release on a prior hold
We've received approx 5 calls about this sort of issue since we switched over. Have processed just over 2000 auth/cancels in total to give you an idea of size
I'm not seeing an obvious way that that duplicate auth would be created from an API perspective at the moment. I think you should bring this to our support team and provide the screenshot + that payment intent ID, they will be able to dig deeper in to what happened here
