Can you share the in_xxx ID?

[fast glade]

the invocie is still in draft actually

that might be related

what I do - create invovice, add invoice item. and I was told I dont need to send the invoice

[jagged osprey]

You need to finalize it (which will send it)

They can't be paid until finalised

[fast glade]

how to finalize it?

[rose urchin]

you can call https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/finalize

( it's one of the steps in https://stripe.com/docs/invoicing/integration#create-customer-code )

Thanks.

So, basically, yet another remote call of the stripe api, right?

On a high level, like this:
Invoice invoice = createInvoice(stripeCustomerId);
createInvoiceItem(stripeCustomerId, stripePriceId, units, invoice);
InvoiceFinalizeInvoiceParams params = InvoiceFinalizeInvoiceParams.builder().build();
invoice.finalizeInvoice(params);
return invoice.getId();

[rose urchin]

yep that's the idea
