Can the user delete their Stripe connected account in the first place?
Today yes they can directly in the Dashboard.

If so, would Stripe send us an event when this happens?
Yes! You would get account.application.deauthorized See https://stripe.com/docs/connect/webhooks

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Is it possible to delete an account in test mode, so that I can test this?

nocturne geyser Nov 1, 2021, 3:11 PM

#

yes, you can close an account via the Dashboard at the bottom of https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/account

When I read a Stripe connected account again (after the user has deleted it), what field would tell me that account has been deleted?

nocturne geyser Nov 1, 2021, 4:11 PM

#

the account is deleted, you don't have access to it at all anymore

#

you can't read it or access it in the API

sleek gorge Nov 1, 2021, 4:15 PM

#

Right, I assume I'll get an error from the API if I try and read it?

#

correct

I can't seem to delete a Stripe connected account in test mode from the account settings.

This is what I can see 👇

#

yeah you can't do that. You're viewing the account as the platform, that won't work

#

You have to create an account and log at that account's Dashboard directly (with its own login/password)

This is the error message I get when I try to close a test account 👇

#

oh, looks like a bug then, that's pretty bad

#

I suppose it's because historically Standard accounts were still 'full' live accounts, but now you can create them with test mode API keys they are test mode only account objects and that part of the dashboard for deleting the account doesn't work with that. We should fix that! I'd write to https://support.stripe.com/email with the account ID acct_xxx and the screenshots so we can work on the bug.

Great, thanks!

#

Is there any other way I can test this before the fix?

#

I don't think so actually, seems it's not possible to delete these accounts, which is not ideal.
