You can retrieve a PaymentIntent and get the associated charge: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-charges-object. Then, you can get the balance transaction of the charge: https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/object#charge_object-balance_transaction. And retrieve it: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/retrieve. From there, you can get it's available on date: https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/object#balance_transaction_object-available_on and list payouts by that date: https://stripe.com/docs/api/payouts/list

#

So there's not a straightforward way to do this unfortunately but you can use the above

holy hell

#

hi im still not able to connect the payout and the balance transaction

#

you said i can do it by date? i have the available_on

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 3:46 PM

#

@hollow charm you are doing it backwards

#

you can not go from the Charge to the Payout, this is too complex. You have to go from the Payout back to the Charge instead.

#

So list all Payouts, for each Payout list whats in it, and then store that in your database

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/list + payout: 'po_123' gives you all the BalanceTransactions bundled in each Payout

#

yeah i initially thought itll be easier seeing as that data is present on the payment page

#

is there any other field that can just tell me if it was paid out or not? based on the paymentIntent

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 3:52 PM

#

there is not

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 3:52 PM

#

welp

#

thx for the help

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 3:57 PM

#

Sure!

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:04 PM

#

1 more question, do the payouts hold a list of all the transactions? or do i need to bundle them together myself?

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:06 PM

#

Assuming you use automatic payouts, which is the default, then they bundle all transactions for a given day into them so they bundle those and that's why you have to use https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/list + payout: 'po_123' to list everything in it

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:06 PM

#

and if im using manual?

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:08 PM

#

then all of that is impossible in that case but you'd never get the screenshot you shared earlier

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:10 PM

#

so what do i do in that case? i have my customers default to manual and after 2 weeks if all is ok we put them on automatic

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:11 PM

#

that's not the same thing though.

#

If you don't create any payout for 2 weeks then the first payout is still automatic and will contain all the transactions for the past 2 weeks so it still works exactly like I said!

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:12 PM

#

but i do make manual payouts

#

and then switch to automatic

#

we are pretty new to stripe but thats our use case

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:12 PM

#

ah if you make manual payouts in the middle then it's just impossible. We can't know what is bundled in your manual payouts since you decide/control this

#

the only option is for you to track this in your own database really

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:13 PM

#

manual payouts will be in the payouts list right?

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:13 PM

#

yes, but they will just be for an amount you choose, they won't "bundle" any specific transaction

hollow charm Mar 21, 2022, 4:14 PM

#

oh

#

and automatic ones will?

#

https://stripe.com/docs/api/balance_transactions/list +po_ manual <- wont work

#

but if its automatic it will

#

thats my take away?

pure sandal Mar 21, 2022, 4:17 PM

#

correct!
