Hello! What's your question?
bold rapids
Not sure how this is supposed to work. Since the event originates from us, the platform's account, how do I link that to a user in my system for whom the charge was on behalf of?
waxen lark
Can you provide more context? Which Event? Can you provide an example Event ID I can take a look at?
bold rapids
Before I changed to using on_behalf_of, I simply used requestoptions to set the connected users stripe account, and then I created a webhook of type Connected Account, and any checkout session events completed would hit the webhook and there I could just link the session.AccountId to the account id of a connected partner in my db, that way I could create a payment record and mark an order as paid
but now, with on_behalf_of, the account associated with the event is ours, the platform
do I need to use metadata here or is there some other way?'
waxen lark
Ah, okay, so you switched from direct charges to destination charges and now you're wondering how to link checkout.session.completed Events to the destination connected account?
bold rapids
yeah!
waxen lark
What mode are you using for the Checkout Sessions?
bold rapids
I realized the question might actually be a bit stupid since I could jsut use the charge id
waxen lark
Yeah, using the Charge will work.
