👋 Looking into this.

#

stripe login --api-key "then specify your live key"

#

This should allow you to login to your live account

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:02 PM

#

the prefix for the api key is sk_live right?

#

hollow warren Aug 20, 2025, 10:06 PM

#

correct.

Can you log out of the dashboard complete in the browser first?

#

apologizes, for stripe CLI it will always default to test mode unless you specify the --live argument as well

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:10 PM

#

stripe payment_links create --application-fee-percent 3 --currency "usd" --on-behalf-of "acct_1RKKYDRfaR1ewCgI"
-d "line_items[0][price]"='price_1RyIjPDCuRuHsY0oqWhjQJ6R'
-d "line_items[0][quantity]"=1 --live

#

i passed in live here

#

okay logout of the browser, will do

hollow warren Aug 20, 2025, 10:11 PM

#

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:12 PM

#

hollow warren Aug 20, 2025, 10:18 PM

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:18 PM

👋 Taking over this thread, catching up now

#

Can you use stripe login --interactive, then login with the live mode secret key?

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:49 PM

#

i tried that earlier. will try again

#

vale plank Aug 20, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

Since you have the secret key in hand, how about just creating the payment link via cURL instead of using Stripe CLI?

tawny ledge Aug 20, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

i could

vale plank Aug 20, 2025, 11:54 PM

#

I hope cURL has solved the problem. Is there anything else that I can help here?
