Schemas

Create a login link — response body

Field	Type	Presence	Description and constraints
$	object	Root	Login Links are single-use URLs that takes an Express account to the login page for their Stripe dashboard. A Login Link differs from an [Account Link](https://docs.stripe.com/api/account_links) in that it takes the user directly to their [Express dashboard for the specified account](https://docs.stripe.com/connect/integrate-express-dashboard#create-login-link)
created	JSON	Required within parent
created (anyOf 1)	integer	Alternative	Time at which the object was created. Measured in seconds since the Unix epoch. Format: unix-time
created (anyOf 2)	string	Alternative	Pattern: ^-?[0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+)?(?:[eE][+-]?[0-9]+)?$
object	string	Required within parent	String representing the object's type. Objects of the same type share the same value. Known values: login_link
url	string	Required within parent	The URL for the login link. Maximum length: 5000

Policy, approvals and errors

SDK function policy ID: stripe.postaccountsaccountloginlinks. Catalog operation: PostAccountsAccountLoginLinks. Rules can name either ID; function rules distinguish managed calls and conservatively cover raw calls sharing the route. Existing grant permissions and policy rules apply. wait() returns an immediate result or waits for a required approval; it never approves the request itself. Persist the approval ID to resume after a restart.

Provider errors retain their response; JSON decoding raises ProviderAPIError for provider failures. ManagedOperationError identifies contract/input/retention errors. See error handling and provider-specific behavior. Sensitive input may be refused before approval storage. A decoding error never resubmits a write.
