You can check the associated invoice with the subscription and look at the billing_reason

This should tell you if the invoice was created for subscription creation or update or something else
https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-billing_reason

[sick sand]

I dont have billing_reason in the object

You're looking at the subscription object

you need to look at the invoice associated with it

it should be under latest_invoice
https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/object#subscription_object-latest_invoice

[sick sand]

still i dont know where it is

[trim haven]

latest_invoice is marked as expandable.

So you'd need to retrieve the Subscription when you receive the event while expanding latest_invoice

https://stripe.com/docs/api/expanding_objects

[sick sand]

i checked other objects and i still can't find this https://cdn.sefinek.net/static/01.11.2023/webstorm64_jf77zgZPSLko.png

Can you share the subscription IDs in text?

[sick sand]

sub_1O7fSPGl3RNUcXxRVDoByOQY

[trim haven]

and are you making a retrieve subscription API request after you receive the webhook event?

[sick sand]

probably not

[trim haven]

That's you need (I mentioned that above),

So you'd need to retrieve the Subscription when you receive the event while expanding latest_invoice

[sick sand]

I have no idea what this code should look like. I've never integrated a payment system on a website before

const subscription = data.object;
const test = await stripe.customers.retrieve(subscription.id, {
    expand: ['latest_invoice', 'invoice.subscription'],
});

[trim haven]

https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/retrieve

  'sub_xxxx',{
      expand: ['latest_invoice'],
    }
);```

[sick sand]

https://cdn.sefinek.net/static/01.11.2023/webstorm64_P17QzLQ6yLuc.png still

case 'customer.subscription.updated': {
    const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.retrieve(data.object.id, {
        expand: ['latest_invoice'],
    });

    if (subscription.status === 'canceled') {
        await handleCancelledSubscription(verifiedEvent);
    } else {
        await handleChangedProduct(verifiedEvent);
    }

    break;
}

[trim haven]

can you share the whole subscription object you're getting in the retreive request response?

[trim haven]

so latest_invoice: 'in_1O7fm3Gl3RNUcXxRaKFNPBDU', clearly exists

you're not expanding it correctly

[sick sand]

and what should i do with this?

[trim haven]

  'sub_xxxx',{
      expand: ['latest_invoice'],
    }
);```

can you print out subscription after you call retreive and before it hits 

```if (subscription.status === 'canceled') {
        await handleCancelledSubscription(verifiedEvent);
    } else {
        await handleChangedProduct(verifiedEvent);
    }```?

[sick sand]

i dont completely understand. could you send me the readymade code for how it should look?

[trim haven]

I can't write your code for you, I gave you clear instructions above.

[sick sand]

I don't understand them because I've never dealt with payment integration before. as for my current code, I had someone else write it, and now I want to improve it to meet my requirements

nevermind, i read what you wrote a second time and I understood ^-^

[trim haven]

It isn't related to any payment related code though
It just programming basics

ah good 🙂

[sick sand]

now it works https://cdn.sefinek.net/static/01.11.2023/webstorm64_N29DX8pjS1cu.png

Awesome!
