Hello 👋
You may need to create an invoice item first in-order to invoice the customer

#

hold on, there's a way to create an empty invoice too

#

You can set pending_invoice_item_behavior while creating an invoice to exclude
which would create an empty invoice
https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/create#create_invoice-pending_invoice_items_behavior

From I can see of the invoice item options, it's expecting Invoice id to be referenced

#

I'll give that a try

#

That seems to have worked, I at least am not getting errors in the code

Yup, now you can create invoice items for the invoice

We're not seeing the invoice created in our stripe portal. In the logs I only see the errors from "Noting to invoice for customer"

#

If I'm in test mode will I not see that in the stripe dashboard?

I believe you'd typically see it under draft invoices
