You need to use this endpoint: https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscriptions/list#list_subscriptions-customer

That works, if you already have the subscription ID: const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.retrieve( 'sub_1MowQVLkdIwHu7ixeRlqHVzs' );
I need to retrieve the Subscription ID for a customer.
opal sky
Click the link i sent
That's not the endpoint I linked
The one I linked allows you to pass customer id
blissful zodiac
I did click on the link you sent. And the code I went back is copied/pasted from that page. If all I have is the customer ID ... Or do I now have to start storing the subscription ID in my local db?
opal sky
You didn't click the one I sent
If you did yo'd see:
const subscriptions = await stripe.subscriptions.list({
limit: 3,
});
blissful zodiac
Yes, I most certainly did.
opal sky
not stripe.subscriptions.retrieve
blissful zodiac
Great, how is that going to know which customer?
blissful zodiac
That was a lot harder than it needed to be. #docsfail
opal sky
How so? It's 1 api request. Or do you mean it was difficult finding it in the docs?
blissful zodiac
It was nearly impossible to find in the docs. And I've spent almost an hour on this. 😦
blissful zodiac
I have a lot of trouble with your docs, in general. Can't find things that I think would be useful, like a comprehensive list of all the event types, etc. I end up going from page to page to page and only getting incomplete info.

Here's a list of all event types: https://docs.stripe.com/api/events/types

A complete guide for "if you're taking electronic payments via stripe, here are all the events you need to handle" would be fantastic. Maybe once I'm done with this integration I'll write it.
Thanks for the help
opal sky
Yeah it's tricky to do that because there's so many stripe products and so many events. The event types one person may need to listen to might be totally different from another person
