Hey so I can't seem to find it. I set the date to Feb 18 and it shows no results.

It says a combination of individuals and companies can use the Person api.

#

But I get that error when attempting to use the Person api with individual

I'm sorry but I can't see the request id. I set the date to yesterday but I get no results. I made the api calls yesterday in test mode. I'm using a test secret key. Could it be that I'm using try catch in my code? I'm capturing the error with try catch, I just can't see it in the logs.

#

I'm seeing requests from February 3. I made requests yesterday. If I change th date to yesterday I get "no results".

From the limited context you provided, it sounds like you're trying to add a person on an account type individual. Can you walk me through what you're exactly trying to accomplish?

#

I'm trying to onboard individuals with the Person Api. I can show you the screenshot again of the docs. They say I can use the Person api to onboard individuals. Maybe the docs are inaccurate.

Right, so what are the exact steps you're taking? What are you relly trying to do? What integartion documentation are you following?

app.get('/stripe/onboard', async (req, res) => {
try {
const account = await stripe.accounts.create({
country: 'CA',
business_type: 'individual',
business_profile: {
mcc: 1711,
product_description: 'products',
url: 'www.example.com'

await stripe.accounts.createPerson(
account.id,

);
const accountLink = await stripe.accountLinks.create({
account: account.id,
refresh_url: 'https://www.example.com',
return_url: 'https://www.example.com',
type: 'account_onboarding',
});
res.json({ 'account_link': accountLink.url });
} catch (e) {
res.json({ 'err_code': e.code, 'err_msg': e.message })
}
res.end();
});

This is my expressjs endpoint. I'm trying to onboard individuals with the Node api.

#

I get this error: {"err_msg":"Adding additional persons is not supported for accounts with business type individual."}

What integration documentation are you following?

plucky yarrow
#

During the verification process, information about the persons associated with an account needs to be collected. If you onboard:

Only companies, use the Persons API to collect this information.
Only individuals, you can use the Persons API or the individual hash on the Account object.
A combination of individuals and companies, use the Persons API to collect this information. This way you collect information in the same manner regardless of business type.

#

I'm trying to do the third option, combination of individuals and companies.

Can you share the account creation request ID with me?

#

If you look at this document, https://docs.stripe.com/connect/required-verification-information it states:

If you’re onboarding Express or Standard accounts, you don’t need to collect information because Stripe does it for you through the Stripe-provided UIs. However, you can review the type of information that’s collected from your users on this page.

#

I suspect that we're aleady collecting the details, and hence when you make the request using the Persons API, you get that error.

plucky yarrow
#

I'm collecting account information in my app then prefilling with the api.

#

here's my request id: req_qm0WS5TgpwiRpB

Taking a look

#

Can you try that?

plucky yarrow
#

Yes I can create an account link. I'm collecting account info in my app and sending it to Stripe via the Api. I guess it's simply not possible to use the Person Api as the docs suggest.

#

Thanks for looking into this.

That is beacuse you're using Express, and that information is collected for you: https://docs.stripe.com/connect/required-verification-information: 'If you’re onboarding Express or Standard accounts, you don’t need to collect information because Stripe does it for you through the Stripe-provided UIs. However, you can review the type of information that’s collected from your users on this page.'.
