Hello 👋
Can you share the test subscription ID you're working with here?

If you look at the current_period_start date on the subscription creation response, it is set to 1682427630

but how can i set the current_period_start when i create the subscription?

I don't exactly know how it works with usage-based pricing but typically when you backdate a subscription start date, the initial invoice is created for the timespan between start date and the current time.

https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#:~:text=If set%2C the first invoice will contain a proration for the timespan between the start date and the current time

If that applies to usage-based pricing too then there's no way to report usage retroactively really

let me take a look

Yeah don't think there's a way, have asked a colleague to look into this too
