hello! can you share the request id where you set total usage to 0?

tough basalt May 16, 2023, 12:50 AM

#

Hello! Yes, my colleague will join this thread momentarily and give the id

thick zealot May 16, 2023, 12:52 AM

#

Hey all! The request id is: req_cO0eOcg8V6dKJh

#

This request should have set the usage on subscription item si_NrGCwiAq4LuJEU to 0, but did not.

#

it'll take a while for me to test this out, i'll get back to you shortly

#

Sounds good, thanks so much for your help

okay, i think in order to achieve what you're trying to do - you need to "reset" each of the existing usage records. When you make the request with action=sum, you need to input the exact timestamp of the old usage record which you want to overwrite, does that make sense?

#

so for example, if you have usage_record : 1 at 1 am, and usage_record : 2 at 2 am, you need to make a request to set usage_record : 0 and 1 am, and usage_record : 0 at 2 am

#

I did as you suggested, and yet the usage remains. I used the stripe console to do it this time.

#

Hi @thick zealot can you share with me the request ID?

#

Did you use the exact same timestamp?

thick zealot May 16, 2023, 5:14 AM

#

I selected the exact same time as what is shown in the stripe console

#

to use the exact same timestamp I would need to use the API

#

I can do that and share the results

#

There should, however, be a way to do this from the stripe dashboard right?

#

I don't think there's way to create Create a usage record through Dashboard, you'll need to call the API to create a usage record.

#

there is a way to create a usage record, using the button in the top right hand corner of this screenshot. This page can be reached by navigating to any subscription that uses metered billing, and then clicking the ellipsis located on the subscriptionitem under the Pricing header, and finally selecting view usage history

#

I think it would make sense to me that the API would be capable of more than the dashboard, and maybe even more reliable. I will test out executing the set action via the API and see if that works.

#

the API worked
