I'm basically trying to figure out how to deactive an account. Seems like the API doesn't provide a straight answer to this. If I try to set all capabilities to requested: false I get an error saying I can't set all of them to that, but not setting all of them, seems to mean the account is still operational for payments.

Hi there 👋 I'm not quite sure I understand. Typically if you want to stop processing payments for a specific Connected Account, you'd have your code stop creating payments for them.
Do you plan to continue using this Connected Account in the future?

Well ,we have an "account" entity in our SaaS and that entity has a related account at Stripe, so when we deactivate/activate an account, we also want to apply that to the Stripe account.

Depending on how your integration is set up you may be able to reject the Account:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/account/reject
but offhand I don't think you can recover accounts from that state.

Yep, I did check that path, but looks like it doesn't fit the case.
Seems like Stripe is inhibiting this

I still think the best approach is to build this blocking into your code. Even if you block the account on the Stripe side, you'll still need to adjust your code to handle the errors that would arise from trying to create payments for a blocked account.
There is a feature in the dashboard that I've heard about but no very little about, that lets you pause connected accounts.
