Hi 👋

Can you explain what specific update action you are taking?

#

i wanted to change the subscription item on subscription in cases where customer changes products, i was told here to instead update the subscription item's price id

#

but i am not sure

#

if the subscription items will fully get updated once i update the price id

#

Ah, that is because a Subscription Item is only related to a Product through a Price. Since each Price record is associated with a Product, changing the Price changes the product.

#

and all other details will get updated as well on the subscription item?

#

What "other details"?

steel cloak Oct 6, 2022, 8:34 PM

#

how often the billing is etc

#

like if the user went from a monthly billing to a yearly billing product

raw tulip Oct 6, 2022, 8:34 PM

#

Billing cycles are set by the Price record

#

so yes, that is what controls the billing cycle

#

ok good

#

thank you for the help

#

oh

#

actually nevermind

#

sorry thought i had another question

But to be clear, I would read that reference doc I linked closely. One thing to be aware of is

When changing a subscription item’s price, quantity is set to 1 unless a quantity parameter is provided.
