#Kapuma-routing-number

The example is about Colombia
dark nova
I should send the routing number on Bank account API
But if I create bank account through stripe dashboard, this field not is required
dark nova
Here i'm trying to create bank account for Connect account through the API
dark nova
But in bank account form through the dashboard, this field is not required
blazing pasture
Perfect, thank you
blazing pasture
Yes I am, consulting my colleagues on this
dark nova
Ok, thank you
blazing pasture
In some countries, separate pieces of information—for example, the bank code and branch codes—must be combined to create a routing number.
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payouts-bank-accounts
So for Columbian accounts, the API is expecting the bank code as the routing number
dark nova
And... what about dashboard? Why routing number not is required?
blazing pasture
Unsure, still looking in to it
dark nova
Got it
cuz i'd like know the way to create bank account via api without routing number, like the dashboard way

@dark nova https://stripe.com/docs/connect/payouts-bank-accounts are our official docs and they say you need the bank code in routing_number
The Dashboard can do things differently because we ask you for the bank name in the UI. But it won't work in the API for connected accounts so you have to pass the bank code
marble elm
it's not a routing number though, it's the bank code
that's what it says in my screenshot
Maybe you can build a list on your end that maps a bank name to a bank code and show a drop down like ours
dark nova
And send it through routing_number?
marble elm
yes that's wht we need, the bank code inside the routing_number parameter
dark nova
Ok, got it
