    Marc Lou@marclou · Dec 6, 2025Stripe changed their Restricted API keys flow. It killed the onboarding of 6 of my startups. It used to be possible to prefill permissions with query parameters like this "?permissions[0]=rak_charge_read" so users don't have to select each permission manually. The easy alternative would be asking for the user's API key, but it's definitely not good for security. The purpose of Restricted API keys is to allow granular access to specific ressources, so why not keep an easy way to prefill permissions with query parameters? I love @stripe, and I wish they would restore this feature for all of us building apps on top of the platform. @AzianMike @jeff_weinstein @jrfarr
