Can i somehow create invoices and then connect payment intent to invoice and then finalize it?
pulsar dragon
When creating an Invoice a PaymentIntent is created automatically, you can use it for your needs.
shut holly
ok then i think I know everything, thanks
pulsar dragon
Happy to help.

But as I am going throught the docs, there is no possibility to create invoice with invoice item. Create Invoice have no items (like in subscription), and even when updating invoice line item we need id of it.
pulsar dragon
You need to create an Invoice and then create Invoice Items with a reference to the Invoice ID.
shut holly
ok thanks
But still something is not ok for me, as you wrote: "When creating an Invoice a PaymentIntent is created automatically, you can use it for your needs.", based on docs this is not true because of collection_method, when set to charge_automatically uses default payment method and send_invoice will send it to the user, and we don't want to do it, we want to emped Stripe element into our website

If you don't set auto_advance: true, it will not be sent/charged unless you manually request it: https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/create#create_invoice-auto_advance
shut holly
But still payment intent as you said is not created,
pulsar dragon
You need to finalize the Invoice.
shut holly
Ok thanks
