Can you share a screenshot of where it shows 'inactive'?

[simple moth]

sure

on stripe dashboard

[solar patrol]

It's expired

[simple moth]

I'm sorry, I need to rephrase the question, although its showing expired on stripe dashboard, but when we fetch the coupon details from stripe API, it returns valid:true

[solar patrol]

That's the parent Coupon object, not the Promotion Code

They're separate entities – a Coupon have multiple Promotion Codes and it's validity is separate to whether or not the promo has expired or not

https://docs.stripe.com/api/coupons/object#coupon_object-valid

That's the field you're looking at in that JSON. The screenshot for the Dashboard is for a Promotion Code object: https://docs.stripe.com/api/promotion_codes/object

[simple moth]

we're using this code to fetch the coupon details, hitting endpoint https://api.stripe.com/v1/promotion_codes

const promoCode = await axios({
      url: 'https://api.stripe.com/v1/promotion_codes',
      method: 'get',
      headers: {authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY}`},
      params: {
        limit: 100
      }
    }).then(response => response).catch(error => error);

    const promotionCodes = _.get(promoCode, 'data.data', []);

so we need to check validity separately for each coupon code ?

[solar patrol]

OK, but the JSON in your screenshot is clearly a Coupon object. It clearly states so: object: 'coupon'

[solar patrol]

I don't understand what you're doing enough to answer this

[simple moth]

ok, I apologise about the confusion, so I just need to only verify the validity of the promotion code which is part of some stripe coupon ?

[solar patrol]

Well, what are you trying to show in your application with the data from the API?

[simple moth]

we're looking for api endpoints that can return the information about coupon and promotion separately or in the same place together

like here promo29feb1 is a promo code that any user can use to get 10 percent discount, so we're taking the code promo29feb1 and we want to check its validity

[solar patrol]

OK, so if it's a Promotion Code then you'd need to check the expires_at and active fields

[simple moth]

this endpoint will return the above info right? https://api.stripe.com/v1/promotion_codes

[solar patrol]

Yes

The 'inactive' badge in the Dashboard is likely computed from a number of API fields – there's no one field in the API for that
