a) why is a new zero invoice created? It would be much better to avoid during the trial
This is expected for subscription created with trial.

From https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/trials:

When creating a subscription with a trial period, no payment method is required for the customer. An immediate invoice is still created, but for $0.

#

b) why in the logs do I see a new setupintet created (not by me) which I then find deleted later?
Can you share the subscription ID (sub_xxx)?

When subscription with trial is created, pending_setup_intent will be created.

Since default_payment_method has been set in your Subscription Creation request https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_g1cMcvXUTEOu0y, the Setup Intent was not needed and canceled

Ok, so my process is correct or I need to change something?

Your integration in sub_1NsuVOGQfeKBxuc4TIXOlU5z looks good to me

thank you!!
Just one last question. If I found something wrong when I retribe setup_intend (card declined,....) , what's the best approach to use? Should I restart the entire process (avoiding customer creation) and create a new setup intent?

#

Same setup intent can be re-used
