Error when trying to create standard connect account with business type

[oladejihenry]

i tried doing this in my controller

account = @user.merchant_processor.create_account( type: 'standard', email: current_user.email, business_type: 'individual', business_profile: { url: 'http://lvh.me' } )

but when i try running the code i get this error

You cannot create Standard connected accounts with capabilities via API.

but when i remove the business_type and business_profile i was able to create the standard account for some weird reason. when i checked the log i see this
{ "type": "standard", "email": "sample@gmail.com", "business_type": "individual", "business_profile": "http://lvh.me", "capabilities": { "card_payments": { "requested": "true" }, "transfers": { "requested": "true" } } }

as seen above it keeps adding capabilities for some weird reason.

Also is it possible that this @user.set_payment_processor :stripe, stripe_account: "acct_1234" can be added to the README for connected account/marketplace because i spent almost all day trying to troubleshoot it. but #565 helped

I am new to rails so at first i did not know you can pass the stripe_account as seen above what i did previously was this

def show

        checkout_session = Stripe::Checkout::Session.create({
            mode: 'subscription',
            locale: I18n.locale,
            line_items: [{
                price: plan.stripe_price_id,
                quantity: 1
            }],
            subscription_data: {
                'application_fee_percent' => 10,
                metadata: {
                pay_name: plan.stripe_name # Optional. Overrides the Pay::Subscription name attribute
                },
            },
            success_url: post_show_url(subdomain: blog.name, id: latest_post.id),
            cancel_url: post_show_url(subdomain: blog.name, id: latest_post.id),

       },
      stripe_account: "acct_1234""
 )
        redirect_to checkout_session.url,  allow_other_host: true, status: :see_other
    end

that did not create the customer or add the subscription to pay_subscription table. So in the process of making research i saw this #565 but i have made a PR #853 for beginners like me.

I was able to solve the first problem by doing this

account = Stripe::Account.create({
            type: 'standard',
            email: current_user.email,
            business_type: 'individual'
        })

        @user.pay_merchants.find_or_create_by(
            processor_id: account.id,
            processor: :stripe 
        )

i tried doing this in my controller

account = @user.merchant_processor.create_account( type: 'standard', email: current_user.email, business_type: 'individual', business_profile: { url: 'http://lvh.me' } )

but when i try running the code i get this error

as seen above it keeps adding capabilities for some weird reason.

Since Stripe doesn't allow that, you'll want to include capabilities: nil so that our default values don't get included in the request.
