hello, this is for automatic payouts right?

Automatic or not

The idea is that when a merchand retrieve his money

We want to generate an invoice (on our side) with all the fees according to this payout

And a file will all transactions

[hexed linden]

well if it isn't automatic (but is manual), then you track on your end what the manual Payout was composed of, Stripe / the API wouldn't know.

e.g. if 2 Charges for $40 and $60 happen but you manually Payout $30, which of the 2 Charges was paid out? so with manual, user's are expected to track it on their end

with Automatic, you can go from Payout to the original Charges. You list all the BalanceTransactions (BTs) for a Payout: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/list#balance_transaction_list-payout

Then you "expand" the source: for those BTs and get the original Charges that upp-ed your Balance and eventually were paid out

In fact

we want to recreate the same behavior than Stripe do for us

I think automatic payout, let's say every 26th of the month

Will (on our side) generate an invoice with the total of our fees and all the transactions.

oh ok "For automatic Stripe payouts only, only returns transactions that were paid out on the specified payout ID."

that's nice

I think it's exactly what we need 😄
