Hi! Can you share the request ID (req_xxx)? Here's how you can find it: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

req_Wyy5AwfbiV4jf5?t=1732521440

note that this was done on test

Thanks for the ID
the paymentIntent was created on the platform, but your code was trying to capture it on the connected account, and that's why it failed.
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/destination-charges you should include the connected account in the payment_intent's transfer_data to create a destination charge.

thank you very much,
i want to also confirm, because in my flow (i.e. for my application use case), there is no way i can get the connect account id for that particular user, so can i update the payment intent after it has been created to then add the stripe connect account

hi! I'm taking over this thread.
if the PaymentIntent hasn't been confirmed, then yes you should be able to update it
obsidian sparrow
thank you
will i be able to know if the user have enough for the authorization hold while creating the payment intent?
oblique pond
no you can't know this before confirmin the PaymentIntent
obsidian sparrow
ooh, and now there is no way i can cancel an already confimed payment intent?
oblique pond
you could refund the PaymentIntent
obsidian sparrow
okay, one more issue as regards my flow,
since i can't update after confirmation,
is there a way i can make the payment intent know that i will providing a stripe connect account id when i want to charge,
because in my case, i will have to confirm if the user has the amount of money before i know the connect account to pay into.
oblique pond
I'm not sure I follow. could you describe in more details your complete flow? using a concrete example would help.

the app has a part where i create an authorization hold, to pay a service provider, but i will not pay the servoce provider until he delivers the service.
before the customer, searches for possible service providers, i want to be sure the customer has enough money for the authorization hold,
so when one service provider accepts, then i will need to update the payment intent with the servoce provider's connect account id..
now the issue is
for me to know if the customer have enough money for the authorisation hold, i have to confirm the payment intent, and i also cannot update a payment intent that is already confirmed
oblique pond
why don't you set the connected account ID when placing a hold?
ad then the connected account will only receive the funds when/if you capture the funds
obsidian sparrow
the reason why we don't want to do that is,
we don't know the one out of the pool of service providers that will provide the service to the customer
it is until there is an agreement between the customer and service provider, that we can now create payment intent... and we don't want it to now be at that point we will now be verifying if the customer has the money or not...
we want to know if he has the money before they agree
oblique pond
got it, give me a few minuts to test something
obsidian sparrow
okay, thank you

hi vanya, will you continue from where soma stopped?
oblique pond
I think what you are trying to do is not possible with Destination Charges. but you would use Separate Charges & Transfer for this:
- create the PaymentIntent with a hold on your own account
- capture the funds later
- then transfer the funds to the connected account
