Hi 👋

Would this fire as soon as the user has successfully subscribed?

modern coyote Dec 12, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

Yeah, I suppose that would be the idea

#

hey 🙂

#

In that case I think the customer.subscription.created event would suite your needs pretty well: https://stripe.com/docs/api/events/types#event_types-customer.subscription.created

#

Hmm, my flow gets the client secret from the latest_invoice of a Subscription created to pass to the Card Element. Does that mean that customer.subscription.created fires then?

#

Yes.

#

So do you want to wait until the first payment?

modern coyote Dec 12, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

Yes, I suppose so, thanks!

#

In that case you would listen for invoice.paid and only send the welcome email when the billing_reason is subscription_create: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-billing_reason

#

perfect, thanks!
