Hi there! Can you share the ID of the customer you're expecting to be returned in the metadata search call?

[rare fractal]

well... it's a unit test so I create the customer then delete it at the end the test.

for example:

{
  id: 'cus_PoKLNV4jCZ0vVP',
  object: 'customer',
  address: {
    city: 'Tallahassee',
    country: 'US',
    line1: '1234 Oak St.',
    line2: null,
    postal_code: '12345',
    state: 'Florida'
  },
  balance: 0,
  created: 1711489064,
  currency: null,
  default_source: null,
  delinquent: false,
  description: null,
  discount: null,
  email: '[e-mail]',
  invoice_prefix: 'C071FFE7',
  invoice_settings: {
    custom_fields: null,
    default_payment_method: null,
    footer: null,
    rendering_options: null
  },
  livemode: false,
  metadata: {
    test: 'testing...',
    'user-email': '[e-mail]',
    'user-id': '66034027de1e687316404c88'
  },
  name: 'Acme Inc.',
  next_invoice_sequence: 1,
  phone: '5555555555',
  preferred_locales: [],
  shipping: null,
  tax_exempt: 'none',
  tax_ids: {
    object: 'list',
    data: [],
    has_more: false,
    total_count: 0,
    url: '/v1/customers/cus_PoKLNV4jCZ0vVP/tax_ids'
  },
  test_clock: null
}

oh hey!! it just started working

Thanks for the clarification. I will say that, depending on how quickly you're creating a customer and calling the search endpoint, you may not receive the result you're looking for. There might be a bit of a delay before a recently-created object will be returned

ya, I have it retry up to 20 times because of this.

okay... thanks for your help.
