@bold forge Do you have any suggestion for the above scenario?
bold forge
No they can't share the same ID. We have a process to "clone" a Customer from Platform to Connected Account
But not between Connected Accounts
molten oracle
So, we should store the customer and their card information on the platform account, and then clone it to each connected account. Is that the ideal approach?
what is the best practice for this scenario?

Yeah I believe so. Here is the guide: https://docs.corp.stripe.com/payments/payment-methods/connect#cloning-payment-methods
molten oracle
Got this error.

Thank you @viral niche .
I have another question: We have already created a few customers on the platform account using the "/tokens" API. Would it be possible to clone these customers to the connected accounts?
viral niche
You can't create Customer using /v1/tokens, you create Token objects with it.
Actually are you sure that's the flow you want to support?
molten oracle
I have not used payment-methods endpoints when I created a few customers intitally..
Would it be possible to migrate over to use payment_method?
viral niche
You should be able to turn those Tokens into Payment Method objects
molten oracle
Could you share any docs/articles to do this?
molten oracle
Thank you. So using customer id can we query the token id? On our database we have stored only customer-id
viral niche
Could you send me an example Token ID please?
molten oracle
yea sure.. we have a customer id created on platform account using card token. Here is the customer id (LIVE) cus_Q8QbGpA9a5s6cL
This was the charge id -> ch_3PI9kJIcWSSPnlgr072lWDsa
I think this was the token when I created "tok_1PI9juIcWSSPnlgr1r4smcJQ"
viral niche
Are you talking about the Source? card_1PI9jtIcWSSPnlgrrxZbITRN
molten oracle
Sorry, here is the request id "req_gwLFmxt1T1JsGk" when I created the customer
viral niche
Thank you. So using customer id can we query the token id? On our database we ha...
Yes, when you retrieve the Customer, it will contain the attached Sources.
However, Sources API is deprecated, please use Payment Methods instead
molten oracle
Now that I have already created a few customers, How can I migrate.. What are the APIs I should use. Could you please suggest?
viral niche
<https://docs.stripe.com/payments/payment-methods/transitioning>
You can follow this guide.
molten oracle
Is there any CURL sample code available to convert?
curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/payment_intents
-u "sk_test_u7EPXn2YDSrs1gUI29kaC67Z:"
-d "payment_method_types[]"=card
-d amount=1099
-d currency=usd
-d customer="{{CUSTOMER_ID}}"
-d payment_method="{{CARD_ID}}"
so I can pass the "card_1PI9jtIcWSSPnlgrrxZbITRN" to migrate?
but this API looks like a payment right?
viral niche
No, sorry, this will just charge the old Source.
There's a tool in the Dashboard to help you migrate the Sources: https://support.stripe.com/questions/reusable-object-migration-from-sources-to-payment-intents
molten oracle
If I understand correctly.
First step is to migrate to the card_source to use Payment Method API.
Second -> Clone payment method to the connected account.
The above URL redirects to https://dashboard.stripe.com/sources-migration which then redirects to the dashboard. But I don't see the migration tool.
We support only card payments in the US region only.
viral niche
First step is to migrate to the card_source to use Payment Method API.
Second -> Clone payment method to the connected account.
These are 2 different processes.
- Yes, I recommend you to start using Payment Methods API as soon as possibe.
- If you want to use the Payment Methods on your Connected accounts you need to clone them, yes.
molten oracle
I actually used Payment Intent APIs to create the customer, However, I used the /tokens for Cards initally and then passed token id object to the Payment Intent API
viral niche
Just want to clarify, Payment Intent and Payment Methods API are not the same.
molten oracle
Okay, got it.. Thank you. I did not use Payment Methods API to capture the customer card info. I belive I used "/tokens" which I should not use anymore right?
viral niche
Correct
