Hello
The request ID you shared is setting name and price ID in the line item. You can't do that
Price object should have it's name already
so you can't override that when creating a checkout session

Yes, I understand that. I don't feel like am explaining my problem correctly or something. The stripe docs indicate that if I want to do upgrades or downgrades that I need to use one product and have multiple prices for the different tiers. However, when I create a checkout session it just shows the product description but does not show the price description so the user does not know what tier they are paying for. https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/upgrade-downgrade#changing

Hi, this is expected that the product description would show. When you follow this guide, https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/upgrade-downgrade#changing are you saying you can't update it with a price on a different product?
Where is that request id? Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

What I am saying is that the checkout session just shows the name of the product but has no description of the price item in it. So every price that I use has the same name in the checkout session. I would like the Product name to be there but also the description of the price item that is being used. Right now, no matter which of the 4 prices I have setup all checkout sessions just show the name of the product which is confusing to the customer.

That is the limitation with Checkout Sessionsin subscription mode. You can test by rceating 4 products and 4 prices to surface description for each
solemn warren
So in that scenario how does a user upgrade from one product subscription to the other product subscription?
red orbit
What request are you making to upgrade the subscription? Are you using the API directly to update the subscription? That should work
solemn warren
I will use the API. Ok, so when I looked at upgrading the subscription it just shows an endpoint for changing the price item. What endpoint would allow me to change the whole subscription?
