Stripe permission, in plain English

What can an AI agent do with
Create and void invoices?

It can create, finalize, and void invoices. It can also read them.

How to spot it

On a Stripe connection or settings screen, this is Invoices: Write.

Strongest thing it allows: Can change.

With it, an agent can

  • Create invoices
  • Finalize an invoice
  • Void an invoice
  • Read invoices

It cannot, on its own

  • It cannot refund payments with this permission alone

What a bad day looks like

It could void an invoice a customer was about to pay, or finalize one with the wrong amount.

Set it up safer

Ask the company selling the agent
