Could you share the Checkout Session ID?

Was the subscription's first invoice for $0?

Okay, so in subscription mode, the Checkout Session object's payment_intent will be null: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/object?lang=node#checkout_session_object-payment_intent

What you want to do instead is expand the Checkout Session's invoice. The invoice object should include the PaymentIntent you're looking for

thanks for your response

i will try that out thank you. will i also need to expand the payment_intent object from the invoice?

It depends. If you just need the PaymentIntent's ID, no need for additional expansion

If you want to look at the full PaymentIntent object then yes, the PaymentIntent should also be expanded
