hi! well you don't really, it works the opposite way
when a payout happens, you can find out what payments were included in that payout : https://docs.stripe.com/expand/use-cases#charges-in-payout
and then that way you can know that a certain invoice has been paid out in that Payout; so you listen to payout.created webhook events, do that process, and mark your database or add metadata to objects so you have information on what payout they were in
quiet wolf
so if there us any way to create the link between invoice id and payout id?
bronze warren
yes, I described the way above.
quiet wolf
so with the help of pm_id we can fetch the payout id?
bronze warren
not sure what you mean, I never mentioned a "pm_id" (pm_xxx is a PaymentMethod).
as I mentioned — you would listen to payout.created events, use the process at https://docs.stripe.com/expand/use-cases#charges-in-payout to 'reconcile' what payments are in the payout, and update your database with that information. If you do that over time for every payout, you will know what payout a certain payment or Invoice was in. But you have to understand it works that way(you start with the payout, not the Invoice).
