Hi there, you need include all information, including the items of the existing phase(s), when updating a subscription schedule.
cinder pivot
this is the code "subscriptionschedule = stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.create(
from_subscription=current_subscription.id,
)
stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.modify(
subscriptionschedule.id,
phases=[
{
'start_date': 'now',
'end_date': current_subscription.current_period_end,
},
{
'items': [
{
'price_data': {
'currency': price.currency.code_for_stripe,
'product': current_app.config['STRIPE_PRODUCTS']['tier-product'],
'recurring': {
'interval': interval
},
'unit_amount': price.price,
},
},
],
'start_date': current_subscription.current_period_end,
'end_behavior': 'release',
},
],
)"
but while adding subscription schedule for existing subscription there were no phases added.
initially
radiant sparrow
Hmm, I don't think you can create a schedule without a phase
cinder pivot
but this is how stripe team suggested me yesterday.
radiant sparrow
Why do you want to create a schedule without a phase?
cinder pivot
yesterday stripe team suggested me to " first add a subscription schedule for existing plan and than update the schedule with the phases and in the second item of the phase should incude the downgraded pricing and intervel "
radiant sparrow
You can create a schedule from an existing subscription https://docs.stripe.com/api/subscription_schedules/create#create_subscription_schedule-from_subscription, and the resulting schedule would include an initial phase.
Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, when you update a schedule, you need to include the information of existing phase(s).
cinder pivot
but instead of creating a new subscriptionSchedule we need to add subscriptionSchedule for existing plan right for my requirement ?
radiant sparrow
You mean creating a new schedule and attach a existing subscription to it? No I don't think you can do it and I don't understand why you want to do it this way.

cinder pivot
This way was recommended by stripe developers team yesterday. what will be the ideal way for this requirement?
radiant sparrow
There must be a misunderstanding. Can I suggest to you follow the link that I shared earlier to create a schedule from an existing subscription?
cinder pivot
Sure, i will look into it.
now this is the updated code stripe.Subscriptionschedule.create( from_subscription=current_subscription.id, phases=[ { 'items': { 'price': subscription_item.price.id, }, 'start_date': 'now', # You may want to calculate this properly using timestamps 'end_date': current_subscription.current_period_end, }, { 'items': [ { 'price_data': { 'currency': price.currency.code_for_stripe, 'product': current_app.config['STRIPE_PRODUCTS']['tier-product'], 'recurring': { 'interval': interval # The new interval (e.g., monthly) }, 'unit_amount': price.price, # The new downgraded price }, }, ], 'start_date': current_subscription.current_period_end, 'end_behavior': 'release', }, ], ) but it gives this error module 'stripe' has no attribute 'Subscriptionschedule'
radiant sparrow
How did you import stripe?
cinder pivot
just like this import stripe
radiant sparrow
it's SubscriptionSchedule, not Subscriptionschedule
cinder pivot
ohh yah, my bad.
This is the updated code :
stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.create( from_subscription=current_subscription.id, start_date='now', phases=[ { 'items': { 'price': subscription_item.price.id, }, 'end_date': current_subscription.current_period_end, }, { 'items': [ { 'price_data': { 'currency': price.currency.code_for_stripe, 'product': current_app.config['STRIPE_PRODUCTS']['tier-product'], 'recurring': { 'interval': interval # The new interval (e.g., monthly) }, 'unit_amount': price.price, # The new downgraded price }, }, ], 'end_behavior': 'release', }, ], )
but gives this error Request req_stgwH1QJMSqho4: Invalid array
radiant sparrow
You can check the error message to understand why the request failed. phases[0][items] expects an array, but you passed in an object
cinder pivot
As in my understanding, isn't the first object of phases is the current billing cycle for my requirement so just adding end_date for the first object of phases without items info would work ?
radiant sparrow
No, as I repeated many times, you still need to include the existing content of the existing phases when updating the schedule.

cinder pivot
okey
This is the updated code as you suggested stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.create( from_subscription=current_subscription.id, phases=[ { 'items': [ { 'price': subscription_item.price.id, }, ], 'end_date': current_subscription.current_period_end, }, { 'items': [ { 'price_data': { 'currency': price.currency.code_for_stripe, 'product': current_app.config['STRIPE_PRODUCTS']['tier-product'], 'recurring': { 'interval': interval # The new interval (e.g., monthly) }, 'unit_amount': price.price, # The new downgraded price }, }, ], }, ], ) but now it gives this error Request req_w0mLM6khbnsvRE: You cannot set phasesiffrom_subscription is set.
FYI : my requirement was if customer wants to downgrade from yealy plan to monthly plan and apply the downgraded monthly plan in the end of the current billing cycle and continue with the downgraded plan how to achieve this ?

You have to do it in 2 separate steps:
- Create a Subscription Schedule with from_subscription parameter.
- Update the Schedule with the new phase.
cinder pivot
okey
This is the update code:
`schedule = stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.create(
from_subscription=current_subscription.id,
)
# Update the schedule with the new phase
stripe.SubscriptionSchedule.modify(
schedule.id,
phases=[
{
'items': [{
'price': schedule.phases[0].items[0].price,
'quantity': schedule.phases[0].items[0].quantity,
}],
'start_date': schedule.phases[0].start_date,
'end_date': schedule.phases[0].end_date,
},
{
'items': [
{
'price_data': {
'currency': price.currency.code_for_stripe,
'product': current_app.config['STRIPE_PRODUCTS']['tier-product'],
'recurring': {
'interval': interval # The new interval (e.g., monthly)
},
'unit_amount': price.price, # The new downgraded price
},
},
],
},
],
)`
but got this error 'builtin_function_or_method' object is not subscriptable
fleet bane
Could you please share the Request ID req_xxx? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
cinder pivot
okey, i will look for it.

real dirge
👋 taking over for my colleague. Let me know if there's any follow-up Qs I can answer!
cinder pivot
sure, i am looking for request id
real dirge
take your time
cinder pivot
please, don't close the thread.
actually, there is no request to the stripe API while this error occurred, the error was from this part schedule.phases[0].items[0].price
from the above code
real dirge
would you mind pasting the error?
cinder pivot
sure, this is the error TypeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object is not subscriptable
