To clarify, I'm hoping to use an already existing subscription schedule instead of re-entring the schedule details with the invoice preview request since that seems fragile.
I also tried using preview_mode=recurring and IIUC that does not take into account upcoming phases.

Hello
What happens when you et the schedule ID when creating a preview invoice?

That does seem to work for the next upcoming phase. Actually I want to look to the next phase after that.
Our use case is "subscription extensions". We extend your subscription by 1 month means we add a month-long phase at the end of the current phase, and then start another phase after the "extension phase". That last phase is where I want to generate an invoice.

I don't think there's a way to go to the next to next phase unfortunately.
You can override the schedule with the next to next phase details instead using schedule_details - https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/create_preview#create_create_preview-schedule_details
or directly listing the changes under the subscription details - https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/create_preview#create_create_preview-subscription_details

hmm okay. Do you think there might have been a better way to support the use case?
perhaps by setting trial_end?
eternal eagle
Yeah that might work? I'd suggest giving it a try in test mode
weary tulip
okay, I think that'll do for now. thanks!
