Hi there

So if you want to do this then you want to create the invoice_item separately from using add_invoice_item, then you can set discountable: false (https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoiceitems/create#create_invoiceitem-discountable)

[astral plover]

So, first I've to create the subscription, and then create a separate invoiceItem?

Because if I try to add he discountable:false to the add_invoice_item object, stripe throws an error

[vagrant fractal]

You would create the Invoice Item and then create the Subscription

That way the initial Invoice for the Subscription will pick up the Invoice Item

The add_invoice_item param on the Subscription endpoint doesn't support discountable

So you have to use the Invoice Item endpoint directly

[astral plover]

Okay, so I create the invoice item without any subscription, then I create the subscription, and then? I don't have to tell the invoice item which subscription is related to it?

[vagrant fractal]

Nope if you don't specify any Sub or Invoice when creating the Invoice Item the next finalized Invoice will pick up that Invoice Item

[astral plover]

ah, ok...!

[vagrant fractal]

Since you haven't created the Sub yet you can't specify it 🙂

And you don't want to create the Sub first because then the Invoice will already be finalized

[astral plover]

Now I understand. It's weird but at least now I understand haha

[vagrant fractal]

Yeah a little strange

Would be easier if add_invoice_item supported discountable

Hopefully in the future it will

thank you @vagrant fractal !
