Hi there 👋 I believe you simply need to use the platform's test key when making the requests, and that will result in any objects created on the connected account being created in test mode.

Hi Toby, thanks for your swift response. 🙂 Adding to my initial question, I'm actually a service provider through which other businesses (Stripe) are selling products. I'm using our Stripe API Keys to create checkout session.

But I'm wondering if I have to use connect account's keys or keep using my own? If OWN, then will those be linked with connected account?

Anyhow I'm working on you response and placing payments with my own key to check if it links payment to connect account.

Oh, sorry, I thought you were already making live payments on connected accounts and were looking to create those in test mode instead, but are you saying that you're just getting started with Connect and trying to figure out how to make requests for a connected account?

Sorry! Seems I was not clear. Yes, I've made LIVE payments and looking for the way to make TEST payments.

The recommended approach for working with Connected Accounts is to use your platform's API key, and provide the ID of the connected account via the Stripe-Account header/paramter.
