Hello
ancient slate
what's the problem you're hitting here?
ancient slate
Can you share the request id from that?
https://stripe.com/docs/api/request_ids

Its when i try to create the checkout
that i get that error
We use 'line_items' for the checkout items
req_UU1Tgn7pXy8ZhG

It's because you're not using Prices and setting the amount directly, which is deprecated. If you use price_data Checkout will automatically create a Price for you which should work with automatic tax: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data
boreal otter
So what you are saying is that what we are using is deprecated right ?
ancient slate
Yep! like @spare pagoda said ☝️ -- one extra note is that while tax_behavior is marked as optional, you will need to set it when using automatic taxes:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-price_data-tax_behavior
spare pagoda
Setting the amount in that way (directly via line items) is deprecated: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items-amount

Okay so i have to switch to price_data
ancient slate
Or prices created separately via the api/dashboard, depending on your application needs
boreal otter
The thing is we have over 10,000,000 different product with different price
We cannot create product for each one or else we gonna full it
ancient slate
As far as i know, there are no limits on number of products or prices, but you can also keep track of which you've created and either reuse or create the price when using it the first time
or use price_data 🙂
(but this is effectively doing the same thing, creating a new price object behind the scenes)
boreal otter
Okok its just a mess to switch to price_data since what i use now
I got another question since stripe checkout is creating new cards on the user account even if its the same card
we have to manually delete each card after the payment is done
Why is it now just updated and not create another card each time
an exemple :
req_EnrASs7Wda4c28

This is how Checkout works, currently. It is safe to ignore or detach the duplicates accord to your preferences, though.
ancient slate
that's fair, but that would be a lot of checkout sessions 😄
boreal otter
Not that much if i remember its 20-30
We got users that can pay over 300-400/month haha
Got one last question
Wanted to get Stripe identity on my account but it says "Stripe Identity cannot support your business at this time. However, we're always expanding our use cases and business types, so we'll reach out to you in the future when things change."
I think they mistaken my business type
Who should i contact about that
ancient slate
Definitely contact support about that: https://support.stripe.com/contact
specifically asking about identity support for your business/region
