hi there!
silent oasis
hey
rough crag
you forgot to set source_transaction: https://docs.stripe.com/api/transfers/#create_transfer-source_transaction
silent oasis
nopes i have set it check this
async transferToConnectedAccount(
amount: string,
connectedAccountID: string,
adId: number,
chargeId: string,
): Promise<Stripe.Response<Stripe.Transfer>> {
const amountInCents = Number(amount) * 100;
const amountToTransfer = amountInCents * 0.75; //75% cut
const amountAfterComission = amountToTransfer - amountToTransfer * 0.035; //taking 0.03% fee
const roundOffAmount = Math.ceil(amountAfterComission);
const transfer = await this.stripe.transfers.create({
amount: roundOffAmount,
currency: 'aed',
destination: connectedAccountID,
metadata: {
ad_id: adId,
mover_keeps: roundOffAmount,
},
source_transaction: chargeId,
transfer_group: String(adId),
});
return transfer;
}
can you share the failed request ID (req_xxx)?
silent oasis
by request id
rough crag
you can find it here https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs
silent oasis
{
"amount": "9409",
"currency": "aed",
"destination": "acct_1QZqF9E2ZqWD320Z",
"metadata": {
"ad_id": "211",
"mover_keeps": "9409"
},
"transfer_group": "211"
}
and error:
You have insufficient available funds in your Stripe account. Try adding funds directly to your available balance by creating Charges using the 4000000000000077 test card. See: https://stripe.com/docs/testing#available-balance
rough crag
in the full error message, there is a request ID (req_xxx)
or you can find it in your Dashboard in the link I shared above
silent oasis
req_F40KOkFGlARRRh
rough crag
well, you didn't set source_transaction in that request: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_F40KOkFGlARRRh
silent oasis
means source transaction is not being set?
rough crag
if you click on the link above, you'll see that there's no source_transaction set
silent oasis
okay let me check my code even though it is being set
rough crag
maybe you are looking at the wrong code, or an old version of your code is cached, or you didn't set the parameter properly. not sure.
ashen vapor
What's the value of the chargeId when you set it? Could you print it please?
silent oasis
maybe you are looking at the wrong code, or an old version of your code is cache...
nopes i am looking on the correct one let me recheck

Hi there 👋 jumping in as my teammates need to step away soon. Let's take a step back. Can you tell me a bit more about what you're trying to accomplish in this flow? Are you trying to create a Transfer to move funds from your Platform's available balance to a Connected Account? Or are you trying to create a Transfer that is tied to an in-progress payment, such that the Transfer happens automatically when the payment completes?

transfer to move funds
i am using stripe standard connect
like first the payment intent api is called when a certain action happens and secondy after sometime when its delivery is made then transfer api is being called with source transaction
frail drift
Currently your account doesn't have an available balance in the currency that you're trying to make the Transfer for, which is why the request is failing.
You can check your account's balance before trying to create a Transfer to ensure you have enough funds to cover the transfer's amount:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/balance/balance_retrieve
silent oasis
but what is the link with enough funds?
frail drift
In testmode, funds still go to your pending balance first, the same way they do in livemode, before moving to the available part of your balance for Transfers and Payouts.
silent oasis
when transferred amount is deducted from the charge id
that is being created from payment intent
frail drift
Oh, so you do want to tie the Transfer to a payment being processed liked I asked earlier?
silent oasis
yess yess
frail drift
Then you will want to use the source_transaction parameter that my teammates were suggesting earlier. We talk about it a bit more here in our guide for building a Separate Charges & Transfers flow for your Connect integration:
https://docs.stripe.com/connect/separate-charges-and-transfers?platform=react-native#transfer-availability
frail drift
I'll be here. I checked the log for the request that you shared earlier and did not see the source_transaction parameter included in the payload that we received.
