hello, you do the latter

but it's not immediate, but rather drafts an invoice scheduled for after 60 min.

then manually finalize() and pay() the Invoice via the API.

#

I will have to implement this using webhook events as it takes the drafted invoice few minutes to be created, is there a way to finalize this process in the same methode?

potent sand Dec 27, 2021, 6:16 PM

#

no you have to finalize and pay as separate API requests

frigid sedge Dec 27, 2021, 6:16 PM

#

aha, I see

#

Okay thank you 🙂

#

is there a way to distinguish the first invoice created after trial period end from other invoices?

#

have some ideas but none super clean (yet)

what is the billing_reason on the first Invoice (one after trial)

frigid sedge Dec 27, 2021, 6:32 PM

#

subscription

#

my idea is to check if there was a an invoice prior with amount due = 0

#

hmm so https://stripe.com/docs/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-billing_reason

tells me that subscription_cycle would be "n"-th auto-recurring Invoice

so subscription would be the one after trial

and subscription_create on first Invoice no trial

#

give that a look and see if what I say adds up on the cases you'll have

frigid sedge Dec 27, 2021, 6:35 PM

#

Alright

#

this is correct, but subscription_create also applied to new subscriptions without trial

potent sand Dec 27, 2021, 6:40 PM

#

and subscription_create on first Invoice no trial
correct that is what I meant with ^
