You can expand the Invoice associated with the charge and check if there's a not null subscription parameter under the invoice object - https://docs.stripe.com/api/charges/object#charge_object-invoice
https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-subscription

So, the two charges we are seeing (recurring and non-recurring) are these:
which the first one is the non recurring charge
but there is (in non-rec. billing) a subscription parameter, with just an ID, but it is not null
queen mirage
what's the ID?
brave zealot
the charge id?
queen mirage
the not null subscription parameter
brave zealot
I got confused, sorry, it's not the subscription id, but an invoice id, so in this case there is no invoice object, but just an id, on both occasions
queen mirage
Correct. Invoice can be of one-off or recurring type.
You can retrieve the charge object and expand invoice property to see if there's a subscription parameter under invoice - https://docs.stripe.com/api/expanding_objects
OR You can retrieve the invoice using the API to see if the returned object has a subscription parameter - https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/retrieve
If subscription is null then its a one-off payment. Otherwise, it is recurring payment.

get it, just one more question, can we expand the invoice object on the webhook response? (just as the object sent on Non Rec Stripe(1).txt)
queen mirage
Webhook responses can't be expanded. You'd need to make a separate API request to retrieve the object
brave zealot
okay, perfect, thank you for the patience and collaboration!
