Hi 👋 currency is a field on the customer object, but if you look at the customer creation request parameters you'll see that it's not a valid parameter to be passed when creating a customer record:
https://stripe.com/docs/api/customers/create

#

so is there a way to update the currency for a customer then?

#

or is it strictly based on the invoice and doesn't have a way to be programtically updated?

I'm still trying to confirm that.

#

That field can be set via the Stripe Dashboard (currently not available via the API) or will be set when an invoice is issued or if the customer ends up carrying a balance.

Hey toby you stil around?

#

Was wondering, when creating an invoice for customer. but want to create it strictly from the invoice line entries that are already on the customer. what's the best approach?
