Hi there @late basalt 👋 apologies for the delay.

Trial days on a price are legacy at this point, as you mentioned. They are still available and, depending on how you're creating subscriptions, will still work. How are you creating subscriptions for your customers?

[late basalt]

With an API call subscriptions.create

Passing the PriceId w/ a trial period

@late basalt do you mean a subscription create call with a price parameter and a trial parameter?

because that's the recommend approach

Instead of having a trial period directly tied to a plan/price

[late basalt]

W/o a trial parameters

As you saw, the dashboard still allows you to do this, but its not recommnded

You should pass the trial period with the subscription creation parameters

[late basalt]

What's the options of storing trial length somewhere in stripe then?

Quotes / Price metadata?

Or it still can be stored in trial_period_days, but passed manually on the subscription creation step?

Sure, you could put this in metadata if you like and reference that, but its something that might better reside in your system as use of a trial more likely depends on your business logic
