is proration_behavior a value I should be able to lookup for a subscription or is it only used during the create?

#

to explain a bit more on proration_behavior, it's not "sticky". This parameter really only applies to that specific API request and doesn't have a lasting effect on future changes to the Subscription. For example, if you want to disable prorations every time you update a Subscription, you basically have to always pass the parameter on every API Request changing a Subscription. The same is true for the changes made in the Dashboard.

#

that's why it's not something you would "look up" on a subscription

that's incredibly helpful. i've been spending so much time trying to get that behavior right and that's very enlightening.

i'm trying to move people from a free annual plan on to a $ annual plan on the same product and want to invoice right away for the full term, so understanding this at the middle for me at the moment
