Sure
Wondering if any senior devs at a similar institution would have 15 minutes to chat. Happy to pay for your time if your experience could prove helpful.
Deleted that and put it in here. 🙂

thanks!

are you looking to talk to developers who have integrated Stripe?
full disclosure, I (and my team) staff this Discord channel to answer developer questions, we're engineers at Stripe though

Understood! I had a few questions happy to pay for your time (if it's off limits no worries I sincerely appreciate the help).
We have a few questions simply on your processes.
We have around 1.4 million subscribing customers. Development wise there has been some pushback on the inability to pull reports in one API call, or multiple API calls.
With Sigma and scheduled reports, I don't see this as valid.
Also, second question. For a company our size, which you guys have surely engaged with 20,000+ times, do you provide professional services?
Would you guys come in and assist my dev staff for X weeks if paid to help get things up and running. Is this common?

haha no payment needed, my team helps unblock users of Stripe with any API/programming questions they have, so happy to answer whatever I can

Also, FYI I'm a dev myself of 20+ years. Mostly my own startups so this is a bit new to me (the dev desire NOT to code, or amazing APIs being seen as an obstacle).

ah yeah so reports is an area my team isn't the best with but yes
there is no one API call, you'll have to use any "list" API (e.g. list all Charges) and auto-paginate through them.
and the other options were what you mentioned, Sigma or Scheduled Reports.

Stripe does, I'm not fully in the loop on how but depending on paid programs etc there are different services like Premium Support etc.

can speak from my team's perspective, we own and staff this Discord server for engineer-to-engineer questions.
e.g. I'm literally in 6 active conversations with other developers, aside from this one. So we can help with any API focused questions here.
