Hello, apologies for the delay. I just got caught up on your question
tired finch
No worries, thanks

I was going to ask if you used the iterations parameter but that looks like something different. Looking in to how you may be able to acheive this
tired finch
yeah I believe it has to be at least one

I guess to clarify, why is it a problem for the schedule to still be managing the subscription? I don't think there's way to have it release until the end of the full set of phases, but just also trying to understand the actual issue you're trying to avoid
your schedule set up looks very correct/normal overall though, that's how I would do this same thing
tired finch
Not really an issue but since the schedule isn't doing anything anymore I was confused on why it still has to be there.
if I wanted to I could explicitly release it, right?
e.g. when finalizing the invoice
trim shard
true, you could call the explicit release API
I've never tried it to be honest as this is a bit of an obscure use case, but I imagine it would work for you
trim shard
e.g. when finalizing the invoice
not sure what that means, you'd want to release at some point after that new phase(phases[1] with the new Price) has started
tired finch
when the invoice with the new price is ready to be finalized, I am listening to the webhook
At that point I could release the schedule.
trim shard
you could do it when handling the customer.subscription.updated or invoice.paid event from the start of that phase , true. But it's adding complexity for what I see as no required reason
trim shard
when the invoice with the new price is ready to be finalized, I am listening to ...
yeah ok so sure, you can do it in that 1 hour period when the invoice is draft at the start of the new billing period. Worth testing it to be sure!
tired finch
well I should be able to release it at any time after that point, no?
trim shard
yep, I think so
tired finch
Well I am using the schedule to migrate customers, and check for the schedule to see if a migration is pending. So that's why I'd prefer to remove the schedule when it's done.
trim shard
cool, might be worth investigating that option then!
tired finch
cool thanks
