Also, I'd like to know if there's a way to automatically have a receipt emailed to the client through the api. I looked through the docs but didn't see that, even though there was an option in the connected account's dashboard to email a receipt.

Hi there 👋 can you tell me more about what this means?
I've logged in as the connected account holder to see the payment details. However, if I copy the url with payment Id and try to go directly to it from an incognito browser window, it will not let me log in.
Is this a Connected Account where you know the credentials of the account's owner and are trying to log into the Stripe dashboard as them?
Usually using the "View dashboard as" button is a better way to see what your Standard Accounts would see, with some limitations since you don't own that account, when they log into the Stripe dashboard.

I am in Test mode, so I am creating connected accounts and then logging in as those account holders to see what's happening.
My goal at this point is to created a dashboard on my platform where my clients can view items they've billed for and click a link to go directly to the part of their own Stripe dashboard that displays the line items and other info about that particular payment.
@toby Did I lose you?

Sorry, jumping between a lot of threads. Sorry, so what isn't working there? We're not too familiar with dashboard behavior, we specialize in helping with our libraries and API, so my teammates and I will need you to be explicit about what you're trying/seeing.

Okay. When I log in to my regular developer account, toggle into Test mode, and navigate to the connected account where I generated a payment session and a successful payment, and then I click on the details of that payment, I can see the line items, the amount of the payment, etc. The url for this is...
Where the last param of the url string is the payment id.
This is what I would like to provide to my users when the click on an order on my platform. However, if I take that link and paste it into an incognito browser window to test it, I get blocked from logging in to see it, even when I am using the correct credentials for the connected account.
I think this is an api question because I generated the payment session etc. through the api.

You just want the beginning and end of the URL, I believe. Looking at an example payment in your Platform account may give you a better idea of what those URLs typically look like. I'm pretty sure the problem is the Connected Account reference in the middle of that link.
What do you see if you trim it to:
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/payments/pi_3PRLBiI3RZBncukr1ESpKVwC
and try to log in as the Connected Account?

🥳 awesome!

Yes! Thanks!
I do have a couple of other API questions to pick. your brain about.
One is, on the dashboard for the connected account there is an option to email their customer a receipt. Is there a way to set this in the SesssionCreateParams, so that if I send a customer's email address and some flag it will maill the receipt?

Okay, I'll study that, thanks. Finally, I want to know if it's possible to set up a partial payment with an invoice to pay the balance when the goods are delivered. For example, our client collects 50% of the order total when he shows the mockups to the client, and then collects the rest on deliver.

There's a beta for that, but we have no context on it in this channel, so we can't answer questions about it: https://docs.stripe.com/invoicing/payment-plans

Hmm, okay, thank you for showing it to me. If I did have questions about it, where would I go?
