hello! do you have an example subscription id where I can take a look? it'll have the prefix sub_

Hello @snow ocean
Does the subscription needs to be from the Stripe Account linked to my discord Id or any else will be just fine?

snow ocean Jan 31, 2025, 4:42 AM

#

any will be fine

https://dashboard.stripe.com/events/evt_1QkT9lBj3TGQUfAKoL7BFS6o - I see the metadata in the invoice event under subscription_details

If you check you will see the metadata added upto invoice id in_1QD6NCBj3TGQUfAKq49VSVb8 as I had ran a script to update all past invoices in bulk

But the invoices generated later is missing out the metadata.

I was under assumption of it will be added automatically for new invoices (Considering its inherited from Subscription)

Eg: in_1QkSDNBj3TGQUfAKdIVM3Hye , in_1QZDRxBj3TGQUfAKhByon3kg, in_1QOL9PBj3TGQUfAKZY7xGtMV

sorry, but I don't understand. An invoice id has the prefix in_, i can see il_1QkSDNBj3TGQUfAKXEgiUq0N has that metadata too in the event i shared

let invoices = await stripe.invoices.list({
  customer: `<Redacted>`,
});
invoices = invoices?.data?.length > 0 ? invoices?.data : [];
invoices?.forEach(async (inv) => {
  console.log({
    meta: inv?.metadata,
    id: inv?.id,
  });
});

Am trying to retrieve the data like this

#

And its returning data as

{ meta: {}, id: 'in_1QkSDNBj3TGQUfAKdIVM3Hye' }
{ meta: {}, id: 'in_1QZDRxBj3TGQUfAKhByon3kg' }
{ meta: {}, id: 'in_1QOL9PBj3TGQUfAKZY7xGtMV' }
{
  meta: {
    company:  `<Redacted>`,
    companyName:  `<Redacted>`,
    context: 'PURCHASE',
    contract: 'MONTHLY',
    email:  `<Redacted>`,
    time: '2024-10-25T11:12:57+05:30',
    traceId: '547265eb-d0ef-4049-90ff-ef5b51d870e4'
  },
  id: 'in_1QD6NCBj3TGQUfAKq49VSVb8'
}

Hi @dusk lotus I'm taking over this thread

dusk lotus Jan 31, 2025, 5:02 AM

#

Thanks a lot!

ivory parcel Jan 31, 2025, 5:02 AM

Looks like you only set metadata on certain invioces.

dusk lotus Jan 31, 2025, 5:04 AM

#

Yup,
As I said, we ran the script to update the invoices and subscriptions when last 3 invoices were not generated, and thought that the new invoices will automatically inherit the metadata as its also attached to the subscription

ivory parcel Jan 31, 2025, 5:11 AM

#

No metadata isn't automatically inherited, you need to set it explicitly.

dusk lotus Jan 31, 2025, 5:13 AM

ivory parcel No metadata isn't automatically inherited, you need to set it explicitly.

Is this the case as the initial subscription was created without metadata?

What if i create a new subscription with metadata?
Will it auto propagate to all upcoming invoices attached to that subscription?
