I don't think a recurring price will work on a one off invoice but let me test this.

Confirmed. You cannot use a recurring Price record with a one-off Invoice.

The best option is to create a one-off price for the same amount and store some information in metadata to link the two prices for your own record keeping

[trail briar]

ok but is it save to save informations in metadata?

if metadatas are updated by mistake I do not keep any track of that specific invoice

[toxic gorge]

That depends how often you update your records. Plenty of users use metadata fields to track information for their own reconciliation

[rustic gyro]

No I mean in comparison with a price object, even if I decide to update I must create a new price, just to keep track

with metadata is not the same

if I update the metadata do I have any chance to check the previous value

[toxic gorge]

I'm not clear on what you mean. You can always retrieve the current metadata before you make an update.

[rustic gyro]

I mean that Stripe never deletes prices but keep them for history purposes, correct?

I want the same to happen with metadata. Or give some restrictions that metadata cannot be updated once created for that invoice

[toxic gorge]

You can delete a Price record through the Dashboard. But Stripe won't do it

[rustic gyro]

just to be safe if some metadata gets updated and I cannot now for what that invoice was generated

[toxic gorge]

That is not possible. Metadata is something that can be changed or modified at any point

But by you or someone else with access to the API keys

So as long as you control access and don't modify it yourself then it should work fine

ok thanks
