Get account ID of connected stripe account

When I run a test for connecting a user to accept payments through my application, I will need the account id to charge their account.

Stripe\Token::create(
array("customer" => CUSTOMER_ID, "card" => CARD_ID),
array("stripe_account" => CONNECTED_STRIPE_ACCOUNT_ID) // id of the connected account
);

In this snippet (from Stripe), the CONNECTED_STRIPE_ACCOUNT_ID implies the connecting about id which starts with acct_

How do I obtain this ?

Thanks, Rich.

I came here from a Google search with a similar issue. It is actually easy to get from the OAUTH flow, the documentation just does not make it clear which field it is. In short, the missing link is that the CONNECTED_STRIPE_ACCOUNT_ID is the stripe_user_id that you get at the end of the OAUTH flow when the account is connected as per https://stripe.com/docs/connect/standalone-accounts

In their example response at the end of the flow

{
"token_type": "bearer",
"stripe_publishable_key": PUBLISHABLE_KEY,
"scope": "read_write",
"livemode": false,
"stripe_user_id": USER_ID,  //this is it
"refresh_token": REFRESH_TOKEN,
"access_token": ACCESS_TOKEN
}

@Anil..I will outline the steps here:

Step 1: Find client id of your platform. This you can obtain from your settings Step 2: Set a redirect URI. This will be where your users are redirected to after they have signed up for Stripe Step3: Add a Connect Button by which leads to connect authorize_url endpoint

Find more details here: https://stripe.com/docs/connect/standalone-accounts#oauth-flow
