Hi 👋

The amounts for Prices cannot be changed once they are set. However, you can create multiple Prices for each Product and update which Price is the default.

Yes, I tried that. I created new prices, made one of them default and then archived the existing ones. But that broke our product.

My question is simple: Can I update the existing prices so that I don't end up breaking my product ?

[crystal mason]

You cannot update existing prices

How did this "break" your product in the past?

[green solar]

This is the first instance we are trying to adjust the prices. So we have never come across this in the past

For whatever reason , the prices displayed on our product UI gets messed up when I made the suggested changes

[crystal mason]

But you just said you tried it and it broke your product. I am trying to understand what happened so I can advise you on how you can make the change without this issue

[green solar]

Yes, I tried the same thing you have suggested and it messed up the displayed prices in our product

[crystal mason]

What do you mean "messed up" here? I'm still trying to get enough information to understand the problem

[green solar]

Well the prices for Monthly shows as $X/month and Annual shows as $Y / Month. When I added the new prices and archived the existing ones, the $X and $Y disappeared but the new prices were no longer displayed in the product

Where are these prices being displayed?

[robust tundra]

To be clear it is impossible to change a Price's unit_amount. You have to create a brand new Price with a different Price id. No way around it

[green solar]

In one of our pages in the product .

I guess we are referencing the Price ID in our product. Hence it is breaking after the change.

I was hoping that this change will not need a PR but looks like we have to update these Ids in our product
