Hey!
Am not recieving invoice email when attempting to send an email
Customer: stripe.String(createCus.ID),
Price: stripe.String("price_1LQcoSD6yTzA8Nx6TCGJOS2p"),
}
createInvItm, err := invoiceitem.New(&createInvParams)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Unable to make invoice item.")
}
fmt.Println("Made invoice item.", createInvItm)
createInvoiceN := &stripe.InvoiceParams{
Customer: &createCus.ID,
CollectionMethod: stripe.String("send_invoice"),
DaysUntilDue: stripe.Int64(1.0),
}
in, _ := invoice.New(createInvoiceN)
if in.ID != "" {
fmt.Println("Sent Invoice")
}
sendParam := &stripe.InvoiceFinalizeParams{
}
result, _ := invoice.FinalizeInvoice(in.ID, sendParam);
fmt.Println("Finalized invoice.", result.AmountRemaining)
}```I am not receiving then email asking to pay?

Hmmmm....
Do you have the Invoice ID or Request ID for the Invoice that is being generated via this code?
Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
loud garnet
I do have it
icy bison
Can you post it here so I can take a look?
loud garnet
sure

what?
icy bison
I'm taking a look now
loud garnet
oh ok
im just confused as to why it isnt generating an email being sent to the person
icy bison
I don't think it sends the invoice until it is due. So this invoice in_1LQfqqD6yTzA8Nx6LCkqjcpS was created today with days_until_due: "1", so I believe this actually won't send an email until tomorrow.
You can force the Invoice to be sent via the Dashboard or with send_invoice: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/send
loud garnet
is there any way i can test it to make it due now?
or 5 minutes after recieving?
I did force it with send_invoice in code
icy bison
I believe due_date can be modified to any time in the future. Have you tried passing in a Unix timestamp set for 5 minutes from creation?
icy bison
Where are you lost at?
loud garnet
I am trying to make it so it is due in 5 mins
sullen panther
why?
like what is the point of sending an invoice due in minutes, that doesn't really make sense
sullen panther
Create an invoice, finalize it, then it will send
sullen panther
The only thing I see above is one request id from go for invoice creation.

Customer: stripe.String(createCus.ID),
Price: stripe.String("price_1LQgNSD6yTzA8Nx6fCo7Epw4"),
}
createInvItm, err := invoiceitem.New(&createInvParams)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Unable to make invoice item.")
}
fmt.Println("Made invoice item.", createInvItm)
createInvoiceN := &stripe.InvoiceParams{
Customer: &createCus.ID,
CollectionMethod: stripe.String("send_invoice"),
DueDate:
//DueDate: ,
}
in, _ := invoice.New(createInvoiceN)
if in.ID != "" {
fmt.Println("Sent Invoice")
}
sendParam := &stripe.InvoiceFinalizeParams{
}
result, _ := invoice.FinalizeInvoice(in.ID, sendParam);
fmt.Println("Finalized invoice.", result.AmountRemaining)
}```the Invoice you mentioned above has never been finalized though
Are you testing on another one? Something else?
loud garnet
I switched product in invoice item params thats all
sullen panther
Can you share the exact invoice id you have finalized that didn't send an email?
sullen panther
thx looking
loud garnet
anything?
sullen panther
yeah I think you have to call the Send Invoice API after that to trigger the email
loud garnet
Okay and is that in docs?
