👋 happy to help
how would you be able to send the invoice if there's no email for that customer?

If the email was never set, the client would only be able to download the invoice.
If it was set they could send it manually via stripe
We are trying to avoid the automatic email after they finalize the invoice
But the caveat is that we also want the properties due_date and days_until_due that only exist with send_invoice collect method
quiet python
collection_method=send_invoice only works with Stripe sending an email to the Customer's email

The only strange thing is that in the dashboard you can create a send_invoice without a customer having an email
The invoice json also reflects that by having the collection_method=send_invoice and the customer_email=null

in test mode? or in livemode?

Hi there 👋 I'm jumping in as my teammate needs to step away. Please bear with me a moment while I catch up on the context of the thread.
I see that Invoice is still in a draft state. We're not as familiar with the dashboard here (we focus on the API side of integrations) but if memory serves correct the dashboard won't let you finalize that invoice without providing an email, is that the same behavior that you're seeing?
limpid wing
There is a button that says "Review invoice" that then finalizes the invoice as you can see in the req_4026N2YqU3VkXj
Maybe this is a very specific edge case that only works on the dashboard but I'm just making sure if this is possible on the public API
wicked elk
No, it's not possible to create a send_invoice type Invoice for a Customer without an email address via the API.

Ok, we will try to find a workaround for it, thank you @quiet python and @wicked elk
