Hi there! Juggling a couple of threads, looking into this now
Can you send me the discount ID that you expected to see?

Hi there taking over
So this is because of what's described here: https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/prorations#prorations-and-discounts
Discounts applied to an invoice containing prorations are only applied to invoice items and invoice line items that aren’t prorations

Hi there
do you have any suggestions on how to figure out that the proration has a discounted product, and with which discount?
quasi dagger
sorry, I mean for my usecase - I need to go through historical invoices and see which ones were affected by discounts. The invoice I sent as an example involved a user who updated subscription to another product and applied a discount to it.
The discounted price of the new subscription was used in calculating the proration
The next invoice the user is going to receieve will be in a year, but they have used the discount
so I would like to be able to somehow recognize this scenario - a discount has been used for an upgrade
does that make sense?

The easiest way would be to keep track of this on your end (ie record in your database when a discount is applied). Or listen to subscription.updated events to keep track of when discounts are added or removed
But the discount isn't applied to the prorated invoice, so you can't just look at it and tell
