Hi there 👋 that error does seem to indicate that the Coupon was created in livemode so it cannot be used in testmode. If you check in your dashboard here, do you see the coupon listed?

#

you can see i'm in test mode and the coupon exists

red lantern Oct 11, 2022, 2:06 PM

#

Hm, do you have a Coupon with the same ID created in livemode?

rugged vale Oct 11, 2022, 2:07 PM

#

I do

#

is that an issue?

#

I think it might be, but if so that seems like a bug on our end. If you're not actively using that Coupon in livemode, could you try deleting it and see if that causes your request to not error?

#

Ill create a new one called test_10OFFLTD and see if it works

#

Similar error, but says it doesnt exist in live mode

Can you share the request ID (req_xxx) for that most recent request?

rugged vale Oct 11, 2022, 2:18 PM

#

yes let me grab that for you

#

req_Wv5Y38tjwJ7uoT

#

@red lantern there you go

#

Thank you, nothing is readily jumping out at me as to why that error was encountered. I'll need to dig further.

#

Sounds good, that would be helpful

red lantern Oct 11, 2022, 2:37 PM

#

Ah, I think you're passing the name of the Coupon instead of its ID. Running a quick test to confirm.

rugged vale Oct 11, 2022, 2:38 PM

#

do we need to pass ID instead?

red lantern Oct 11, 2022, 2:43 PM

#

That's correct, the Subscription creation request is expecting the ID of the Coupon. Coupon's are one of the few objects within our ecosystem where you have control over the ID that is used rather than it being randomly generated:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/coupons/create#create_coupon-id
However, if that field is omitted from the request when a coupon is created, then a random string generated for its ID. The response of the Coupon creation request will contain that id though.
