Connecting Stripe Express Dashboard

I’m building a marketplace that uses Stripe. It allow “sellers” to create a Stripe Express account via the API Connector, then returns an account ID for that seller to my application that I store in my database. That works perfectly. Now, I am trying to allow sellers to access their Stripe dashboard. Stripe’s documentation says that when the seller clicks “Access Dashboard,” use the API Connector to send the seller’s account ID to Stripe, and Stripe will return a one-time URL that will navigate to the seller’s dashboard. I have the API Connecter set up and a workflow that should theoretically do this, but I am getting a generic workflow error. Could anyone help me figure out where this is going wrong?

Can you provide the error message? You can also check in Browser console log to see more information about an error with your API call

Hi @Jici,

The error is, “Sorry, we ran into an unexpected bug and cannot complete your request. We’ll fix it as soon as we can; please try again in a bit!”

How do you access Browser console log?

Also. here’s the Stripe documentation I am referencing if it helps!:https://stripe.com/docs/connect/express-dashboard

This depend of the browser you use. crtl-shift-i with Chrome and firefox

@Jici I took a look at the console and this is what I am getting… not sure what it means however. Screen Shot 2020-04-09 at 9.02.28 PM

Sound strange. Is this working when you initialize the code in API Connector?

Yep, no problems when I initialize!

I suggest you to recreate a new call with the same setting.

If this not working, you should send a ticket.

Actually I take that back… I had previously entered in the API response manually and had no issues. I tried to reinitialize and got this error. Any idea what it means?

I don’t think you are using the authentication correctly and this is the error.
According to what I understand from the link you send, you should use password username, and set your sk key into the username part. That’s all.

I may be able to test in another app we use connect too. Will try to let you know but it may not be before tomorrow.

Interesting… what do you mean by “password username”? Where would this go?

Actually you have selected Private key in header. You have option for username and password


Gotcha. So what would go in the password field?

Nothing according to the link

Interesting, thank you. Ill try it out but was curious: where did you see that in the link? I didn’t find anything about a username

-u in curl command mean username / password. In the doc, you can see the username with : at the end. Normally, what come after : is the password.
When using this kind of auth, you can also do it this way
http://username:password@www.url.com/
