Hi 👋
I tried updating the customer info before finalizing membership purchase but I still see the placeholder data
What specific placeholder data are you seeing? I see you are updating the name and email
Oh, when I look at the API requests related to that Customer
sour root
yes the name and the email on the first invoice are the placeholder data
plush island
I can see the Invoice was finalized before the update request
So that update won't change anything on that invoice
The invoice is finalized in this request: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/logs/req_uyclONJKGGztYs
Which occurrs ~30s before the update request
sour root
when creating subscriptions, is the invoice finalized once the subscription in created?
sour root
Yep I see other invoices have the correct information
Is there a workaround for this?
To fix the first invoice?
plush island
No, the Invoice is frozen
Invoices are legal documents and we are required to freeze the data we include to what is known at the time
sour root
I see, so I would need to change my checkout flow and only create subscriptions once I have the customer's informaiton
plush island
Yes
sour root
oh man ok, thank you for your help
plush island
Happy to shed what 💡 I can 🙂
