How can I retrieve all account informations from a standalone account ?

Is there anyway to request an authorization token during testing in an automated fashion?

I don't have legal_entiy

Rikle_S: https://stripe.com/docs/api#retrieve_account ?

w-p What are you looking for? A tok_xxx object?

with this request, I don't have legal_entity

GET'ing https://connect.stripe.com/oauth/authorize

no

I already done this

Ah, the oauth flow. I'm not sure tbh.

so, that's not cool for writing tests

oauth flow is ok

Not squarespace because I get the same result trying to do a charge in the stripe dashboard.

Ugh

I run this curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/accounts/acct_gregergre -u sk_test_fezfezfe:

And the response don't give all the details

Phil624: Are you using the card number 4242-4242-4242-4242?

like : legal_entity, product_description, support_email etc

kaylined: when trying to curl https://connect.stripe.com/oauth/authorize?resp... client id> the response is not positive. :)

i really need it for automated testing purposes. even if I just generate a test authorization token - that would work.

Rikle_S: I'm not sure if you'd get access to that on a Stand Alone account or not; I know you do with Managed accounts.

Yeah, I have no idea there w-p, sorry.

Oh... killing me...

kaylined: I use managed, and i'm updating my application to use standalone too

If you retrieve a managed account, it should have a legal_entity attribute

kaylined: that's why I need to fetch all Accoun objects

Is it possible to reuse one of the ac_xxx codes since they were generated from test/dev settings?

no, it's not a managed, it's a standalone for this one

No using a live card.

Flipping the switch to "View Test Data" everything worked fine when it wasn't live.

Phil624: Try using 4242-4242-4242-4242 exp 01/20 CVV 123

So, where I can submit a formal feature request to get something like a test authorization code for use in my unit tests?

K

w-p: https://support.stripe.com/email - I'm not sure if dqsf is lingering still, but he may have more for you on that one as well.

w-p: if you have a feature request, yes, please write in

kaylined: it it's not a managed account, all the Account data is not available ?

Rikle_S: if it is a standalone account it is expected that you wouldn't get full details, many of those are managed account only

ok thx

Phil624: I might recommend writing in, sharing some examples of charges that failed, support can have a look

Kaylined: Works great in test mode.

Phil624: That's why; your square space needs to be in a Live mode for real credit cards to work.

Cool. I'm sure you guys can knock it out in one sprint. ;)

Thanks dqsf. I did about 5 hours ago so I thought I would mess around.

If the test card worked, that means you're stuck in test mode

And I'm not sure how Squarespace handles the transition from live/test API keys

Kaylined: I am leaving squarespace out of it and just trying to get a charge through on the Stripe dashboard.

Ah

I can't get that to go :(

Phil624: if you're using square space it looks like you'll want to make sure you've switched 'enable test orders' off https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articl...

Phil624: https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/payments/s... Does it show your credit card option is live?

@dqsf: Yep. I have gone to and fro a few times and when in test mode the test card works but in live mode real card doesn't.

Cards be "Live" in green :)

Cards LIVE Accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express payments from customers worldwide. 3D Secure for Visa and MasterCard support currently in preview.

W00T

https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/payments and when you try to make a payment there, you still get a 402? If that's the case, definitely write into support as DQS mentioned; https://support.stripe.com/email

Phil624: Worked?

No

Oh.

the w00t as a false w00t.

was*

You were spot on the with " https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/payments and when you try to make a payment there, you still get a 402? If that's the case, definitely write into support as DQS mentioned; https://support.stripe.com/email";

Kaylined: w00t that cards were live but alas still not working :(

Phil624: https://dashboard.stripe.com/logs?method=not_get errors in there?

That's where I found the 402. All 402's

When you click on them, does it give you a more descriptive error?

Sort of. Post body and response body.

What does the response body give you?

Kaylined: The SUPER descriptive ---> "error": { "message": "Your card was declined.", "type": "card_error", "param": "", "code": "card_declined", "decline_code": "generic_decline"

Well, that's more descriptive than "402"

Card declined could be an issue with your bank or anything.

True :)

write into support on that one

Feature request submitted. But https://stripe.com/docs/connect/testing#using-o... says something about 'force-skip the account form' but it doesn't really expand on that. Am I missing something?

5th card failed.

Thanks Kaylined! I've decided to get drunk and wait for support to get back to me. Your efforts and patience with my stupidity is greatly appreciated!

Ha!

Heh

A fundraiser site around a golf tournament where visitors buy a ticket / fee and bet on golf players - like fantasy golf. The proceeds all go to charity. Would this be against Stripe's terms (https://stripe.com/us/prohibited-businesses#fin...)

fcser: https://support.stripe.com/email would be your best bet regarding that.

ok thank you - I may not be explaining the concept 100% correctly also

will go that route

hi, i'm using Checkout with Asp.net. i don't understand how i can relate a checkout to a charge

in the charge method i get an email and a token

but the email can be any and the token is not fixed

jo__: so on your front-end you generate a token. you pass this to your backend and pick it up as a POST var

then you pass those post vars to params in your charge creation call

so the token is generated by me ?

i did not understand that

the token is generated by checkout when it processes the credit card. it is a random string that you then pass to your server

the token is generated by stripe, you place stripe's checkout code on your site to collect card details https://stripe.com/docs/checkout

then my question : where do i link this to my user

then my question : where do i link this to my customer

in your server side code when you have the email and the token. You create a new customer. You create a new user, you add them to a subscription, etc.

Are you using stripe.net?

yes i'm using stripe .net

but i'm missing something

so checkout the docs for creating a customer - you have the email on your server right, and the token?

when i present the payment to customer, i put a price for a customer i know

then when i'm called back

i get an email, but it may be a different one than in my db

did the customer supply the email?

yes

Hey, I have a bit of a managed account question. I'm building a service app for a set of organizations that take payment for membership, but can also sell products. With managed accounts, I cannot create products on behalf of the managed account, but I do get their api credentials.

So my question is, what's the best way to store those credentials?

I'd rather not store secret keys in my database to be safe

jo__: you just have to look for the customer with that email then. if you already know their email address before they checkout, why do you ask them for it? It seems like your app needs to search and see if that email is already a user - then apply it to them. If they are not already a user, you need to make them a new user. If I understand correctly :)

Hi guys! We are preparing to go live with our app but when we try to issue an charge.. we receive this error from Stripe: "This connected account cannot currently make live charges. If you are a customer trying to make a purchase, please contact the owner of this site. Your transaction has not been processed" Do you have any idea why this happen? All transactions were processed in test mode

thank you

at the moment i create the payment page filling the stripe checkout js data filed, i know all.But i understand the real charge will occur in the Charge methog

i can even put a different price there!

Hi there! Is there a way to charge less to the customer than the amount transferred to a destination account? We want to implement a promo code system and we would like to shoulder the difference between the actual price for the managed accounts and the discounted price the clients pay

p-hebert: yep, under some conditions, see https://stripe.com/docs/connect/charges-transfers

i think the answer is that it is a synchronous process

Hmmmm that doesn't work for me, I'm located in CA

On the page it says that it's a feature that is available only in US. Is this still a thing?

p-hebert: "If your platform or the connected account is outside of the U.S., you can only use this approach for less than 10% of your total volume."

liviu: I'd email supports and share specifics
