hi! could you elaborate on what exactly you're trying to do?

[severe lance]

My client has a multivendor like platform but he does not want to use stripe connect and he asked me check how stripe connects each site payment by authorizing stripe login and get the keys.

[hard minnow]

regardless of not wanting to use Stripe Connect, they probably should, I would say, that is the supported way of doing things 🙂

the alternative is something like https://stripe.com/docs/building-plugins where you have the customer copy and paste their API key into your software.

Indeed its saying that I've to build stripe apps for getting user keys But I assume stripe app can be used only in stripe dashboard right?

My client does not want user to navigate into dashboard and copy paste keys from their account to my site.

[hard minnow]

no, they don't need to have a Dashboard UI. https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-apps/how-stripe-apps-work#backend-only-applications

[severe lance]

currently I tried stripe cli which sent the user from my dashboard to stripe login and once they authorized it redirected back to site and brought the keys among which live secret key was hidden. Can I get this done using stripe apps?

I'd be so much thank full if this could be acheived.

[hard minnow]

Stripe CLI is not related to this at all no

[severe lance]

So is this thing acheivable using stripe apps? Like sending client from dashboard to stripe and after authorization get the keys back in response?

[hard minnow]

I mean you don't need their keys

you use Connect and then the way it works is you can just pass their account ID on requests that use your own key

i.e. https://stripe.com/docs/connect/authentication

[severe lance]

I know this flow bro and I've also implemented this once, My client wants to avoid connect as in stripe connect it puts all the financial liability to my client whereas if we use our sellers account they are liable for their own transactions and customers.

[hard minnow]

then as mentioned earlier maybe a plugin model is better.

[severe lance]

Stripe plugin means stripe apps? Do we need any special account for that? Do you know which way the wix uses to acheive this?

[hard minnow]

either you can use the copy-paste approach, or Stripe Apps

I don't know the answer to the other two questions
