👋 happy to help

#

would you mind elaborating?

stiff grotto
#

when i create a subscription i give it metadata

#

so that i can lookup my records when i need to

sacred vault
#

in subscriptions you don't need to look at PaymentIntents

#

instead it's recommended to look at the invoices and the invoice items

stiff grotto
#

i tried that too

#

but invoice.created isn't complete and is missing the metadata

#

but invoice.paid has the data i need - however the paymentintent success is fired the same time

#

so my system cant determin that the payment was succesful as the invoice.paid hook hasn't updated the metadata on the payment intent yet

sacred vault
#

you need to ignore the PaymentIntents that have the invoice property not null

stiff grotto
#

and cannot check my db with the required metadata

sacred vault
#

and move that logic to invoice.paid

stiff grotto
#

ah.. i see

#

so paymentintnet.invoice == null means that its a one off payment?

#

and has no subscription associated

sacred vault
stiff grotto
#

i need to handle the one off payments with payment intents succeeded and subscription payments with invoice.paid

sacred vault
#

more specifically a one-off payment that wasn't created by a one-off invoice

stiff grotto
#

they cannot be handled by the same one..

#

stiff grotto
#

sacred vault
