We actually have a parameter specifically for this. As soon as the Checkout Session succeeds, you can create a Transfer and specify source_transaction=pi_123 where pi_123 is the Checkout Session's payment_intent https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers#transfer-availability

That tells us to wait for the funds to land to transfer them.

ok great

Hi I want to wait for a checkout session to be successful and the funds from the checkout session to become available,

To make transfers to the connected accounts

So I put payment_intent of the session in the field "source_transaction" of the various transfers, but it returns me the error:

StripeInvalidRequestError: No such charge: 'pi_3LAb...."

What am I doing wrong?

[woven gazelle]

Thank you!

Can you send me the request ID from when you got that error message? (req_123)

[mortal furnace]

sure

[woven gazelle]

It should be in your developer logs https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs

Thank you, checking in to your request

[mortal furnace]

I found it

[woven gazelle]

Do you have the request ID specifically for creating the transfer? I am looking through your account logs now but can jump right to it if you have it on hand

Found it

Ah, this needs to be a charge ID (ch_123), I was wrong when I said to pass in the PaymentIntent. You can pass in the first Charge in that PaymentIntent's charges list, then the API call should succeed

[mortal furnace]

one sec

mmm

I'm a little confused

what do you mean by "the first charge"?

where do I take it?

I have the checkout session object, can I take it from there?

[woven gazelle]

Sorry, jumped a couple steps there. So when you get the checkout.session.completed event, the Checkout Session object will have the payment_intent property with the ID you have been using. You can use that ID to retrieve the PaymentIntent. Once retrieved, the PaymentIntent will have a charges array https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-charges-data

The first element in that charges array, charges.data[0], will be the charge that succeeded. You can pass the ID of that charge in to the create transfer call's source_transaction parameter

[mortal furnace]

ok perfect

[woven gazelle]

Phew, I was typing up a summary because I thought I made it a bit confusing

[mortal furnace]

other charges in the array are always failed?

[mortal furnace]

ahah no problem you made it very clear

[woven gazelle]

Yes, if you are in the checkout.session.completed, that means you have had a successful payment. The first charge in that array will then always be a successful charge. Any other charges in the array will be failed payments in reverse chronological order

[mortal furnace]

perfect

thank you very much!
