hey there, can you point to what you mean about not working for standard accounts, or provide an example?

This is with account links for onboarding?

[fresh turtle]

yes.

well, question 1, for a standard account, what is the lifespan for the link generated on the create account link ?

for example the user has to exit the process because they need additional info

[vivid sable]

account links are short lived, a few minutes

[fresh turtle]

so , how can I generate a new link for a standard acount ? I tried using the LoginLink .. and it says this does not work for standard accounts

[vivid sable]

it does, can you share the exact error message, or a request id from the response headers?
https://stripe.com/docs/api/request_ids
like req_1234

[fresh turtle]

Cannot create an edit link for the account acct_1JZbFJQeiBdCrbIx, which is not an Express account.; request-id: req_sonpBgoddnJRqR

I need the ability to have link to get back to the connected account I am trying to onboard ...

[vivid sable]

You're trying to create a login link - that's for express accounts only

onboarding uses account links: https://stripe.com/docs/api/account_links/create

[fresh turtle]

Ok, but how do i create a new link for a standard account in the case they need to return and complete account setup ?

[vivid sable]

same thing, an onboarding link if they haven't finished, but for standard most of the follow up would be handled by stripe
