Hi there, can you tell me the problem that you are trying to solve?

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:26 AM

#

My API is not triggering the create_invoice_item so I figured it was because when I create the subscription the invoice is already marked as paid (total $0 because of the 14 days free trial)

#

I want to know if I create the subscription with the collection_method set to send_invoice or the payment_behavior set to default_incomplete would make it possible to add the one time licencing fee to the invoice of the subscription?

#

Ok, you question is why you didn't receive a invoice.created webhook event for the first invoice that subscription generates?

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:29 AM

#

No, I try to create a invoice item right after creating the subscription:
stripe.InvoiceItem.create(
price=licencing_fee_id,
customer=customer_id
)

#

but it doesn't work, it does not even show in the logs

raw rose Oct 30, 2024, 5:29 AM

#

And where you want this invoice item to appear? the first invoice?

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:29 AM

#

the first invoice of the subscription that I just created

raw rose Oct 30, 2024, 5:30 AM

#

Did you receive an error after running the code? If you don't see the request in your Dashboard logs then it's most likely the request didn't succeed

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:30 AM

#

For context: I want my customer to have 14 days of free trial, after the free trial I charge the subscription price and the licencing fee

raw rose Oct 30, 2024, 5:31 AM

#

Ok. But let's confirm if the stripe.InvoiceItem.create succeed

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:32 AM

#

will it create/succed if the customer does not have a next invoice? (if all invoices are paid)

raw rose Oct 30, 2024, 5:33 AM

#

It will, I'd recommend you to put some logs in your app and print out any errors/exceptions

ornate panther Oct 30, 2024, 5:36 AM

#

it creates a Pending invoice item, will this be included in the next invoice? the customer now only have a invoice marked as paid (total $0 because it just started the free trial)

#

yes, it worked, thanks!
