pollux - connect account refund

[nova escarp]

Hello! Just starting a thread for you -- I'll review and respond as soon as I can 🙂

[balmy slate]

sure

as you can see I have passed the same payment intent Id

[nova escarp]

Can you share the erroring request ID?

It looks like you created that payment intent via a checkout session using a direct charge pattern

[balmy slate]

yeah

i think the account id is wrong let me cross check

[nova escarp]

In which case reverse_transfer doesn't apply, though you might want refund_application_fee (but that's up to you)
https://stripe.com/docs/connect/direct-charges#issuing-refunds

And this is unrelated to the "no such payment intent" error -- still looking at that 🙂

Yea i suspect the account id might be wrong too, which is what i was going to check with the request ID

[balmy slate]

yeah the id was wrong

now I get this

 raw: {
    message: 'Cannot reverse transfer on charge ch_3L04tpSCfUurJJiW1OnaehGH because it does not have an associated transfer.',
    type: 'invalid_request_error',

[balmy slate]

I have to specify the full amount right?

[nova escarp]

No, its fine, but see my note above

[nova escarp]

this 👆

[balmy slate]

ohh I get it now

Thanks @nova escarp

[nova escarp]

NP!

(you can specify the amount optionally, if you want to refund less than the full charge)

HI

[cursive karma]

Hi @balmy slate 👋 I'm taking over for synthrider. How can I help?

[balmy slate]

As Syntrider suggested I should use that api and pass in the chargeId

but how do I get the chargeId?

I have the paymentIntent Id lisning to checkout.session.completed

and then when I try to retirve the data from paymentIntent

i get this error

  raw: {
    code: 'resource_missing',
    doc_url: 'https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/resource-missing',
    message: "No such payment_intent: 'pi_3L065VSCfUurJJiW0wWsS2We'",

[cursive karma]

The charge ID will be on the Payment Intent, but you don't need it to create a refund. You can pass the Payment Intent ID to create a refund: https://stripe.com/docs/api/refunds/create#create_refund-payment_intent

[balmy slate]

Ohh I did that, but I get an error for that too

    message: 'Cannot reverse transfer on charge ch_3L04tpSCfUurJJiW1OnaehGH because it does not have an associated transfer.',
    type: 'invalid_request_error',```

[cursive karma]

So you can't refund a charge using refund_application_fee: true and stripeAccount: '{{CONNECTED_STRIPE_ACCOUNT_ID}}' if there is not an associated transfer. You have to create the transfer first.

[balmy slate]

Ohh wait

it worked now

[cursive karma]

If you just want to refund the charge to the customer, you can do that without those parameters
