HI ๐
Is it possible to programatically update an account dashboard settings using the Stripe API?
Not that I know of
Yesterday our team reached out to the Stripe support team and Will Travers said that's actually possible
That message does not specify programmatically.
Ohh I see, thanks
I am double checking all the available parameters for the Update Account API here: https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/update but I don't see anything that appears likely to work
Hey @rich hemlock - I work with Renan.
We use typeless accounts, with the accounts having access to the Express dashboard.
- Connected account users cannot change dashboard TZ in the Express Dashboard
- We cannot change the connected account's dashboard TZ on their behalf via our Full Dashboard
- We cannot assign the dashboard TZ when creating new connected accounts via API
- We cannot update the dashboard TZ on existing connected accounts via API
- All of our connected accounts are getting created with Etc/UTC assigned as their dashboard TZ
In a nutshell, from our experience it seems that nobody can control the dashboard TZ setting for our connected accounts. This doesn't seem right, hence why we're reaching out.
This server is specifically focused on helping developers code integrations with Stripe APIs so that is where our expertise lies.
Unfortunately, managing Connect Account timezones is not something that can be done via the APIs, at least as far as I am aware.
We have very little knowledge of the Stripe Dashboard.
But, just so I am clear, you are referring to the timezone as it applies to the scheduling of Payouts?
Referring to settings.dashboard.timezone on the Account object
Got it. That is not a parameter we expose in the Update API
https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/update
Which is the only approach to update settings on a Connected Account that I am familiar with.
Yep. It seems that it just defaults to Etc/UTC and nobody has the ability to change it
All good, we'll continue the line of questioning with our other contact
That makes sense to me, since all of our timestamps operate on UTC
No worries, thanks for your help
Hi @prime shuttle I'm taking over this thread
G'day Jack ๐
I'm afraid that Timezone configuration is not available in Express Dashboard. When you create the connected account, you can set controller.stripe_dashboard.type to full so that they can have full Stripe Dashboard access.
Thanks Jack. With our setup, we use destination charges. We've been told our connected accounts therefore aren't allowed to have Full Dashboard access
Can you tell me why you need to change the connected account's timezone?
Our accounts are seeing all of the timestamps for payments and payouts in their Dashboard in UTC... Most of our connected accounts operate in Australia, so the difference in displayed times is 10/11 hrs
Yep, referring to express. Does that setting not apply in express?
The problem is that the Express Dashboard doesn't provide timezone configuration, and the Account update API doesn't accept dashboard.timezone.
I'll pass along your feedback to the Connect team and ask them to consider adding the timezone configuration in the Express Dashbaord,
Thanks. Appreciate the help. We're pretty new to the Express setup. Plan is to rely less and less on using the Express dashboard, but rely pretty heavily on our connected accounts using it at present.
I see, so you have your own Dashboard for your connected accounts for view their payments and payouts?
At present, no. But longer term we intend to pull more of that in, so the connected account is less likely to need to go to express dashboard
Got it. By the way we also provide Connect embedded components that allow you to embed Dashboard functionality to your own website https://docs.stripe.com/connect/get-started-connect-embedded-components
