Sorry, hit the character limit.
Then I use a test clock to advance time.
The meter is linked to a subscription.
But the created invoice does not contain the amount of the meter event. I've transferred the value 5356 previously.

hi there!

So it looks like my meter is not connected to the price. What am I missing? :/
pallid badge
thanks! give me a few minutes to look into this.
rich folio
Sure! I appreciate it @pallid badge

the Customer has a Test Clock set to October 28. but the meter event you sent have a timestamp for today. maybe that's causing the issue? not sure how Test Clock work with Meters.
rich folio
Oh, yes this could be an issue.
In a case without a test clock however, this would be correct?
timestamp: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) // Current time in seconds since Unix epoch
Or is there a way how I can simply pass the timestamp from the webhook (I'm using the invoice.created webhook) which hopefully would use a timestamp of the test clock?

yes, or you can simply not pass this parameter at all, and it will default to the current time. this is explained here: https://docs.stripe.com/api/billing/meter-event/create?lang=node#create_billing_meter_event-timestamp

I removed the timestamp and it worked 🙏 Thank you very much
This value will reset every week, right?
So when a create another meter event next week and pass 20 for example, it will use 0,20€ for the next invoice?

I'm not sure what you mean by this.
