Hi @dry isle! If you use a Connect Webhook on the platform, then yes you will get events related to the Connected accounts. You can learn more about Connect Webhooks here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/webhooks

#

But technically you don't really need to use webhooks in this case, since you are creating the connected account yourself.

Follow up question: is there an easier way to test with connected accounts? I'm integrating the onboarding wizard, step 2 from these docs https://stripe.com/docs/connect/enable-payment-acceptance-guide - but it takes a lot of time to actually go through that wizard myself (and it's still pending as I need to upload documents to get the connected account approved in the test environment)

Enable other businesses to accept payments directly

Facilitate direct payments between other businesses and their own customers.

Unfortunately there's no easier ways, you need to go through the onboarding wizard.

#

and it's still pending
Yes it can sometimes be slow to get the account approved in testmode.

Thanks!! I'm still a bit confused by the 'connect webhooks'. I am now trying to send a test webhook through the dashboard, is this the same event that would be sent if our client finishes the onboarding wizard for the connected acc?

Still trying to figure it out: I already made an endpoint through the dashboard before. I can't seem to edit it to accept 'connect' webhooks. Am I doing this correctly?

Hey, just taking over from @fickle mist – catching up

Yep, that's a Connect webhook. So it'll receive events from accounts connected to the platform (including account.updated)

#

So you'll need to create and onboard a new account

dry isle
#

Awesome, then about the creating and onboarding accounts...

  1. That webhook event is fired only after the account is 'accepted'? So not when it's 'restricted'?

  2. Should I go through the process of actually uploading these documents to finish testing? I feel like that is cumbersome and not the way to go. I am almost finished with this flow and just want to make sure that I can 'link' the new connected account to our database. So I can continue setting up the logic on our server.

  1. account.updated will fire whenever there's an update. So if requirements change then it will fire
  2. You should use the test data when you're onboarding accounts to bypass certain criteria: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/testing
Testing Stripe Connect

Before going live, test your Connect integration for account creation, identity verification, and payouts.

  1. Perfect
  2. Thanks! Going to try this out now

On the phone nr step I am not sure what to enter as test data. I'm trying the 000 000 0000 from the docs but that doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Can you try a different country code?

dry isle
#

I've used my own number now, but I keep running into issues with the linked docs. Do they not apply for using the wizard?

#

For example, trying to use the vat id:

#

Hmm, yeah they work with Connect onboarding

#

What type of Account are you onboarding?

dry isle
#

standard account

verbal lynx
#

Was it a newly created account, or pre-existing?

dry isle
#

I'm newly creating one now

#

That page is behind authentication

dry isle
#

Ah I can't change that quickly. Either way, what can I use for the onboarding wizard? Isn't it in the link you gave?

Hey there 👋 jumping in and getting caught up on the thread. Onboarding Standard accounts can be a bit tricky because they have the potential to become functioning Stripe accounts so we're more strict with what we allow for them.
