@tough fern are you sending the payout to a bank account or a debit card? you seem to say both in your question
tough fern
i am sending payout to a bank account and I have added the bank account to the dashboard. Sorry for the confusion.
shrewd marten
got it.
then the destination would be a ba_xxx bank account ID
I'm not sure it's anywhere on the dashboard but you can get it from the API if you need it
but do you need it? What are you really trying to do?
you don't have to call the API to pay yourself out. It happens automatically each day.
tough fern
Thank you for your response.
the bank id isn't visible on the dashboard or hasn't been generated.
What I am trying to do is to consume this api (please see attached) and when something happens on the application, a specific amount will be sent to a particular bank account.
how to get card_xyz is the problem
shrewd marten
card_xyz is for a debit card though, that's why I asked
you can't send an Instant Payout to a bank account so the question doesn't quite make sense to me.
tough fern
Hmm but it is stated on stripe docs that one can send instant payout to eligible bank accounts and i have checked if my bank is eligible for it and yes it is
shrewd marten
ah ok, I didn't know that
then I guess you can pass the ba_xxx ID of the bank account you added to your account then!
tough fern
unfortunately i can't see ba_xxx anything on this dashboard🥲
these are the fields i saw, and they all populate the bank details, account number and currency. period
shrewd marten
yep ok
you can get it from the API , by calling https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/list
if you don't know your own account ID acct_xxx, it's on https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/user towards the bottom
tough fern
@shrewd marten thank you so much. I am currently looking into it
hi @shrewd marten i think i need permission to access https://stripe.com/docs/api/external_account_bank_accounts/list right? because the response i got from trying to get tha bank account id is (see attached)
Also, is there no way i can just get a test bank account id from stripe to test with? because stripe requires that i use sk live key to test and still it's not going through.
shrewd marten
one moment
yeah that's weird, I guess we don't allow you to list your own bank accounts through that API
it's usually for Connect platforms. Hm. But the docs seem to say you can instant payout to your own direct account, which is news to me as well
if you want the ba_xxx the easiest way is probably to ask our support team. Or if you have your acct_xxx account ID I can tell you what it is(the IDs are not sensitive)
but yeah this is a strange feature, sorry, I haven't looked at this before.
I'm not sure you even can test this, as you say, it's a livemode only
