## Statements (checkable)
0. Stripe error code resource_missing: "The ID provided isn’t valid. Either the resource doesn’t exist, or an ID for a different resource has been provided."  [✓0 ✗0]
1. Stripe keys page: each mode has its own set of API keys, and objects in one mode aren't accessible to the other.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Check that the ID was created in the same mode (sk_test_ vs sk_live_ key) and the same Stripe account as the key you call with, and that you pass it to the matching endpoint (e.g. a Checkout Session id to the Checkout Sessions API).
```
