Hi 👋

I'm pretty sure this is a known feature of the List API

#

That is because the actual created time will always be the timestamp of when the record was created. But when there is a test clock associated then some parts of the API read the Test Clock frozen_time property instead

#

Okay that explains it, the API is masking the true created with the frozen_time

#

is that documented anywhere?

#

any reason why listing doesn't adhere to the test clock time?

It looks like this is a known issue. I have added a comment that you have experienced it as well

vocal pelican Dec 7, 2023, 10:47 PM

#

okay appreciate that! not an issue in production but still, hard to test certain scenarios when listing any historic data based on the current day/frozen_time

rotund raptor Dec 7, 2023, 10:47 PM

#

Yes that makes sense. I think it would be actually simpler for the APIs if they had an optional frozen_time parameter

vocal pelican Dec 7, 2023, 10:50 PM

#

Anything to be able to query the data correctly haha

rotund raptor Dec 7, 2023, 10:53 PM

#

Right, and I think having the frozen_time parameter would be a more correct query. Since it retains the truth of when the object was created while allowing you to query on what the simulated time is

vocal pelican Dec 7, 2023, 10:57 PM

#

I guess the frozen_time is not included in the public objects but is maintained at the time of the object creation for that masking

If you wish to be kept updated of any changes to the APIs related to Test Clocks you can write in to Support https://support.stripe.com/contact and mention my screen name (Snufkin). I can't promise anything will happen any time soon but it will ensure you get notified if something about this changes
