Hi there, are you following this doc for outbound payments? https://stripe.com/docs/treasury/moving-money/financial-accounts/out-of/outbound-payments

const stripe = require('stripe')('sk_test_4eC39HqLyjWDarjtT1zdp7dc');
const outboundPayment = await stripe.treasury.outboundPayments.create(
{
financial_account: '{{SOURCE_FINANCIAL_ACCOUNT_ID}}',
amount: 2000,
currency: 'usd',
statement_descriptor: 'Test outbound payment to FA',
destination_payment_method_data: {
type: 'financial_account',
financial_account: '{{DESTINATION_FINANCIAL_ACCOUNT_ID}}',
},
},
{
stripeAccount: '{{CONNECTED_ACCOUNT_ID}}',
}
);
If I’m logged in with the source account , how can I access the destination account Id? I’m the stripe client
Just trying to figure out what best practice is
I have account I’d stored in my database for the destination account, do I do a lookup with that? Or is there a better way to get it

Are you asking where you should save the destination_payment_method_data ? i.e., the external account number where you want to transfer the funds to?
wooden cave
Yeah trying to see what options are available to get that information when I need to make an outbound payment
quiet bramble
That's entirely up to you, you can store it anywhere that works best for your app

Ok cool, another question
I noticed everytime I send an outbound payment to a financial account in test mode it links a new bank in the external accounts section
Example… I sent 3 payments and I had 3 new external accounts added
quiet bramble
So you want to create a destination_payment_method and reuse it?
wooden cave
I want to be able to transfer money from stripe financial account to another stripe financial account multiple times
quiet bramble
Ok, and did you encounter any errors?
wooden cave
No it worked but when I visit the stripe dashboard it shows a new external bank account added for each payment
Each time I send a payment it adds a bank account with the same fingerprint. Is that normal?
quiet bramble
Can you share with me the link to your Dashboard?

I see, that's normal, and they were created through the destination_payment_method_data
