Hi Tarzan
just wondering here what I am missing, is the only way to add a statement descriptor to update the payment intent in another API request?
ivory goblet
👋 happy to help
you need to update the invoice's statement descriptor https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/update#update_invoice-statement_descriptor
dim fractal
I need to update the invoice in a separate api?
surely there's a way to set that when creating the initial subscription?
ivory goblet
I need to update the invoice in a separate api?
yes that's correct
ivory goblet
surely there's a way to set that when creating the initial subscription?
unfortunately there isn't
what's your account ID? there's a recurring feedback about this and I would like to add you for the list of accounts that are requesting this
dim fractal
And then why the invoice? isn't the payment intent what affects this
i.e. subscription->latest_invoice->payment_intent I already return this for the secret to create the payment form
should I not update the payment intent statement descriptor instead of the invoice then?

the invoice controls the payment_intent and you can't directly update the underlying payment intent
so you need to update the invoice while it's still in its draft state
dim fractal
okay yeah I getcha, I remember that being an issue
been awhile since I made changes to our stripe setup 🙂
That'll be all then, I sent you the acc id in above message
hope it gets added for future users, by then I won't need it anymore 😛
ivory goblet
sorry about that 😦
dim fractal
No worries of course I've implemented that
@ivory goblet , it seems to have worked, but hard to confirm with test credit card
can I see the statement descriptor in the stripe test dashboard on an invoice somewhere? I can't see, or do I really need to get api that single invoice
ivory goblet
it works the same way wether in test mode or in live mode
dim fractal
yeah just want a sanity check that stripe actually has the info 🙂
ivory goblet
can I see the statement descriptor in the stripe test dashboard on an invoice so...
normally you should be able to see it somewhere
I'm not a dashboard expert but it should be somewhere there I assume
dim fractal
https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/invoices/in_1QrJ06LjYDcRA6KW01U8e3Jf can yuo see this?
ivory goblet
I can take a look sure
dim fractal
Ah yes I see it, I update it twice as well
all good here thanks, can consider this one closed
ivory goblet
sure 🙂
