Hello

#

That metadata would only show up if you actually retrieve the Price object

#

😦

#

So mostly it depends on what you are trying to do/accomplish

olive flume Dec 13, 2023, 5:22 PM

#

I have a group of prices/subscriptions that I need to act on in the webhook. I have grouped them by metadata tag

#

didnt want to have to do a if then else for 6 items

#

What Event type are you listening for?

#

To ingest your data

olive flume Dec 13, 2023, 5:24 PM

#

invoice_paid and customer.subscription.updated

frigid plume Dec 13, 2023, 5:26 PM

#

Okay then you can set the metadata you want on the Subscription directly with https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/create#create_subscription-metadata and then that will also be reflected on the Invoice in subscription_details.metadata: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-subscription_details-metadata

#

ok thank you, I will have to look at this.

#

this is called a subscr4iption right

#

this is the price of that subscription right

#

and this is the metadata

#

the price has no metadata option, only the subscription and that has been set

#

isn't this what you are talking about

frigid plume Dec 13, 2023, 5:31 PM

#

You are just showing me screenshots

#

So I have no idea

#

If you share a Subscription ID with metadata set and Events where you expect to see that metadata then I can look

#

But screenshots really don't help

#

Okay I see metadata set on that Product. Not sure what your question/confusion is though?

olive flume Dec 13, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

why doesn't this data come through the webhook responses

#

I am trying to test for this metadata

frigid plume Dec 13, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

I already told you that above -- it will only be present on the Product object itself. So it would only come through on Webhooks that contain the full Product object, like product.created

olive flume Dec 13, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

ah ok

#

sorry

frigid plume Dec 13, 2023, 5:35 PM

#

If you want to use customer.subscription.updated then that contains the Subscription object so the metadata would need to be on the Subscription

olive flume Dec 13, 2023, 5:36 PM

#

oh.. and the subscription is on a per customer basis

#

not the product

frigid plume Dec 13, 2023, 5:36 PM

#

Similarly, invoice.paid is the Invoice object so the metadata would need to be on that object. Fortunately, the Invoice object has a special property which is subscription_details and that will actually contain the metadata from the Subscription object within the Invoice object.

#

Right so what you likely want to do here is build this into your integration each time you create a Subscription

#

You set the corresponding metadata each time you do that

#

got it!
