What I mean is, after the current user logs into their Stripe account and downloads and installs our Stripe app from the Stripe Apps Marketplace, how can we enable the current user to authorize our Stripe app to make calls to the Stripe API interfaces on their behalf, for example, to call this API: https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/search?lang=curl.
I need to publish my self-developed Stripe app on the Stripe Apps Marketplace platform. My Stripe app needs to call the backend interface, and the processing logic of the backend needs to access the Stripe API to query PaymentIntent, charges, etc. For this Stripe app, how can I authorize my backend system to be able to access the Stripe API interfaces?
Hello, could you answer me?

Hello, I am taking a look 🙂
The guide we previously shared with you explains how to make requests using your API key and the user's account ID. Please see this section: https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-apps/build-backend#authenticate-requests

I now know how to call the Stripe API, but how do I get the logged-in Stripe users to authorize my Stripe app?
Hello, please reply if you can. I'm quite anxious.

I am here, sorry for the delay. I am responding to multiple threads at once.

Can you please explain what you are currently trying that doesn't work?
Have you followed all the steps in this section of our guide? https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-apps/build-backend#before-you-begin This explains how to implement a signature-based authentication flow which I believe is what you're asking about.

我现在还不知道怎么让登录stripe的用户授权给我的stripe app 呢。
I still don't know how to get the users who log in to Stripe to authorize my Stripe app.
undone patrol
I don't believe users need to do anything other than install your app from the Stripe App Marketplace. Then, your app performs the signature-based authentication and is able to make API requests.

So you mean that as long as I download and install the default version, it has already authorized my Stripe app for me? Then, when the user clicks the button in my Stripe app, I can use the key and account ID to call the Stripe API, right?
vagrant star
Yep after they've connected, you should be able to just authenticate this this method to make calls for them https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-apps/build-backend#using-stripe-apis

I'm the backend. If I call the API section of https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents, is it sufficient to just use my own account key along with the authorized user's stripe-account-id to make the call?
vagrant star
Yes

I am the one making the backend call to the Stripe API. It is executed by my side. I provided the API interface to the front end of the Stripe app. When the Stripe app front end calls my API interface, it only needs to obtain and pass the authorized user's Stripe-account-id to me. Then, using my own account's key along with the authorized user's Stripe-account-id, I can call the Stripe API interface, right? So, when the front end calls my API, do they need to sign first? After my backend receives the request, it will verify the signature and obtain the Stripe-account-id for subsequent operations.
Hello, please reply if you can. I'm in a hurry. Thank you.
vagrant star
It looks like this doc section speaks to that:
https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-apps/build-backend#send-a-signed-request
We recommend that on the frontend you call fetchStripeSignature which gives you a stripe signature that you can pass to the backend
I am responding as quickly as I can, but making sure this is accurrate can take time.
tropic yarrow
How does the front-end of that Stripe app obtain the Stripe-account-id?
vagrant star
It gets it from the userContext which is passed to your App
tropic yarrow
Is this it?
vagrant star
Yes, that is the userContext object that I mentioned
