Hey @lethal pawn! An Invoice is "an empty shell" for what you're invoice.
You need to create one or multiple InvoiceItems to add to the Invoice to control the total amount

https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoiceitems/create

see https://stripe.com/docs/invoicing/integration/quickstart

i created an invoice item, my code looks like that:

import stripe

stripe.api_key = "my api key"

stripe.InvoiceItem.create(
    customer="a cus id",
    amount=5000,
    discounts = {
        "0": {
            "coupon": None
        }
    },
    currency="EUR",
    description=f"Test invoice"
)

invoice = stripe.Invoice.create(
    customer="cus_MOxf628fWC7mpE",
    collection_method='send_invoice',
    days_until_due=0,
    metadata={
        "type": "test",
        "discord_id": 422813771468374031,
        "amount": 0
    }
)
invoice_id = invoice['id']

invoice = stripe.Invoice.finalize_invoice(invoice_id)

invoice_url = invoice['hosted_invoice_url']

print(invoice_url)```

you're doing it in the wrong order

you can't create the InvoiceItem first. Not unless you're in an old API version

1/ create the Invoice
2/ create the InvoiceItem + pass invoice: 'in_123'
