hello, not sure this is supported, checking

#

typically where does this localization happen, on the Invoice right?

#

yes, from this endpoint

#

yes that is the endpoint you're using, I was wondering where your user typically sees it, on the actual Invoice PDF you send them right?

#

i using thisAPI endpoint to retrieve the data and render on our frontend, actually to generate a preview of prorations before submit subscription updates

#

#

the description is provided by stripe API in english, even the customers lang is set to german

#

looking one sec

#

yeah I don't think the API supports localized messages there, I think it localizes on the frontend like on the Invoice PDF etc but not raw in the API

#

the invoice PDF has the same problem, the whole invoice is in german except the line item description

#

so i assume this is not just an API problem, right?

#

ah ok that helps, then I don't think the description field is ever localized

#

are there any plans in future to implement i18n on item description? thats a very important point to invoice in right language
