Hey there 👋
Let's chat here

subtle bough Mar 8, 2022, 9:45 PM

#

Sure

#

If I create a connect account for a user and they want to disconnect their account, would I delete their account or just revoke access?

#

I believe it'd depend on the type of the account you're creating.
Standard accounts created using live-mode keys cannot be deleted. Custom or Express accounts created using live-mode keys can only be deleted once all balances are zero.

#

Sorry mate, I just want to make sure you are infact a dev?

glass anchor Mar 8, 2022, 9:48 PM

#

Yes I am! did I misunderstand your question? 😄

subtle bough Mar 8, 2022, 9:48 PM

#

😆

#

So let's say the user still had some balance left in their connect account, I would only be able to revoke access right?

#

For Express

#

In that case I would have to make a new connect account every time?

#

To give you an example, Buymeacoffee

#

They also use Stripe

#

When a user disconnects, would they revoke access or delete the account itself

#

and then create a new connect account?

#

So that would mean that there would be a connect account that would still exist but would be inactive?

#

right?

#

Is it ok If I leave this with yourself then?

Working with a couple of threads at the moment! Give me a few thanks 🙂

subtle bough Mar 8, 2022, 10:24 PM

#

Sure.

Ah thanks for waiting!
So if they do some balance, you can reject their account to disconnect it from the platform.
If they don't have a balance, you can delete it.
Just curious if you are using oAuth flow.

#

yessir, I'm using Oauth flow

#

But once, it is rejected, would the account just sit there?

glass anchor Mar 8, 2022, 10:37 PM

#

Yup it'd just stay there.

subtle bough Mar 8, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

And so in theory, users could end up having multiple accounts then.

#

I guess as long as Stripe doesn't mind.

#

Anyway, thanks for the support mate.

#

Could you keep this thread open so I can reference it in the future please.

#

Many thanks, have a good day.

The threads are actually auto-archived but if you have follow ups you can always ask a staff member to re-open it 🙂

#

NP! Happy to help 😄
