I found currently the following way:
If a user wants to make a subscription to the connected account, i need to create him as a customer of that connected account. After that the user can do a subscription of the connected account.
But is this how it needs to be?

Just to clarify, these customers are existing cus_ objects on your platform account? And you want to create subscriptions for them on your Connect accounts?
Also what type of connect accounts?
trim spear
We have a platform where dance schools have connected accounts. The dance schools want to offer now subscriptions for users.
The customers do not exist yet aus cus_ objects on the platform account, but i tried it and then i got always the response, that the customer is not known for the connected account.

What type of connect accounts
trim spear
The type is custom
Because the dance schools also can as example sell event tickets where we work with payment intents

In that case you don't want to create subscriptions on the connect accounts. You want to create them on your platform (via destination charges). See: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/destination-charges. You'd specify transfer data when creating the subscription: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-transfer_data
