The documentation is:

https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks?dashboard-or-api=api

I've also tried with:

const stripe = require('stripe')('testapikey');

[worthy obsidian]

Could you please remove your Test API key from this thread?

What do you mean, "latest STripe version"?

I ran the snippet here: https://stripe.com/docs/api/test_clocks/create?lang=node and it did not work at first

However, after I upgraded my Node SDK it worked just fine.

• Delete package_lock.json
• Delete node_modules
• Run npm install or yarn

Hi Snufkin, the test api is from the documentations (not mine)

[worthy obsidian]

Please just remove it

I see, it's a new project that I just created. Added my package.json if it helps

[worthy obsidian]

I just ran

  stripe.testHelpers.testClocks.create({
    frozen_time: 1577836800,
  });

with

{
  "dependencies": {
    "dotenv": "^16.0.0",
    "express": "^4.17.3",
    "stripe": "^8.203.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "typescript": "^4.9.4"
  }
}
``` in my `package.json` and it was successful

Alright, I'll keep trying and if i'm unsuccessful I'll message again.

Thank you very much Snufkin for your time and help.

I understand the frustration. Test Clocks are a big help when testing out Subscription behaviors

Just made it work but I had to switch from:

import Stripe from 'stripe' const stripe = new Stripe('sorry', { apiVersion: Config.Stripe.apiVersion, })

TO

const stripe = require('stripe')('sorry')

Do you have any ideas why this would happen?

[worthy obsidian]

Once again, bad idea to put even Test API keys in this thread

A malicious actor could grab them and spam the APIs forcing your Test account to be rate limited

[latent steeple]

You are right, it's an generated test api for the documentation.

Thank you for the heads up

[worthy obsidian]

If you are logged in to your account when you visit the API ref docs it will insert your API key

I'm confirming with my account right now

Thanks for removing, I don't want you to get spammed

[latent steeple]

Thank you

@worthy obsidian I have a question about test clocks. Is it possible to create a test clock with an existing user? Rather than creating a new customer for a test

[worthy obsidian]

By User do you mean Customer? Nope you need to create a new Customer for each Test Clock

Indeed, great thank you !
