👋 Hi there, Happy to help!

[worthy sage]

I'm quite confuse about the type

When is it string and when is it Stripe.Invoice

[rose oriole]

that propoerty is an expandable one. By default it has the InvoiceId (as a String)

if you expand that field you'll get an Invoice object

[worthy sage]

how do i expand it?

[rose oriole]

I invite you to learn more about expanding:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects

For example, in your use case:

    const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.create({
      customer: customerId,
      items: [{
        price: priceId,
      }],
      payment_behavior: 'default_incomplete',
      payment_settings: { save_default_payment_method: 'on_subscription' },
      expand: ['latest_invoice.payment_intent'],
    });
