hi! I would list invoices filtered by subscription and look for the most recent one that's been paid, yes.
dry oar
ok, wanted to check if there's an easier way that I missed
misty flint
your retrieve call doesn't make sense to me. It would be more like invoices = Stripe::Invoice.list({subscription:"sub_xxx", status:"paid"}) and look at the first one, which is most recent.
dry oar
the retrieve code is for finding the corresponding line item for that subscription (to fetch its period)
the part ...[:lines][:data].find {|x| x[:id] == 'sub_...'} is for finding the correct line in case the invoice has multiple items

Hmm, but that part seems redundant if you just use the list endpoint and pass the subscription and status params: https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/list
You'll only get paid invoices for the sub_xxx and then you can derive the period from there
dry oar
yeah, true
ocean briar
So that one API call should work for you as the first item in the index will be the most recent paid invoice
