Hi đź‘‹ yes that endpoint is used for deleting customers, after which the customer record will only be returned if you directly retrieve it specifically.

Does that mean I can still retrieve their transaction history details in the stripe web page ?

#

Sorry, it is a bit unclear for me what I am actually deleting and what is persisted with call to that endpoint.

I'm not sure off the top of my head. We primarily focus on API integrations and aren't as familiar with the Stripe dashboard. You can create and delete a customer in test mode then see if you can find them in the dashboard. My suspicion is that you can if you search for their customer ID specifically, but that you won't see them when looking at lists of customers.

I am not sure if this is the right place for suggestions, but I have recently worked with chargebee and they have a separate endpoint and settings section which helps dealing with customer data anonymization which gives you control over what you delete.
