Ah thank you. So you can't create a subscription that starts in the future directly with the Subscriptions API. You either need to introduce a trial or use the subscription schedules API
https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/subscription-schedules/use-cases#start-subscription-future
The reason it worked is because you moved the clock to 1st march so basically billing_cycle_anchor was set to today

i always create subcription in the future
i thought i got it but u've made my question it ^^

i wanted to set billing_cycle_anchor to the first of april
i believe it was not possible since the clock was stucked the 21 of Feb
this is it right ?

Hey hanzo had to step out but I am catching up and can help in a minute
Right so I think this error happened because the clock was frozen to Feb 21 with a monthlong cycle so you coudn't set an anchor later than March 21
So in that case, the expected input would be to set the anchor to March 1 instead of April 1st
