https://docs.stripe.com/api/accounts/object#account_object-business_type:

business_type:
The business type. After you create an Account Link or Account Session, this property is only returned for accounts where controller.requirement_collection is application, which includes Custom accounts

For Express connected account, Accounts object doesn't return business_type since Stripe is the one collects the onboarding requirements

I'm afraid there is no way to retrieve this information via API

[midnight glacier]

no way to generate a report via the dashboard either? The reports all contain the business_type column but they are all empty in the csv

[mossy kestrel]

This channel is for technical integrations such as API. For Dashboard related questions, our Support https://support.stripe.com/contact will be able to help as we don't have necessary expertise

[midnight glacier]

Can't I derive based on if the individual object is defined? I tried this but is always undefined, not sure if I am calling the API incorrectly

[mossy kestrel]

This is thee same as previous statement. For Express connected account that the onboarding requirements is collected by Stripe, those information will not be returned

As long as the onboarding requirement is collected by Stripe (not application), business and individual information will not be returned in the API

[midnight glacier]

can you expand on what collected by Stripe means here?

is it related to the connected account being custom or express?

[mossy kestrel]

Sure!

For Express connected account, the onboarding requirement is collected by stripe.

For Custom connected account, the onboarding requirement is collected by application, which is the platform, i.e. the platform will reach out to their connected account to collect the details needed.
