#mymo - zapier subscription
tidal raft
If this is a request going through Zapier they'd really be the ones to help with this
You say it's "going through" -- to where? How are you seeing this?
Do you have a request id?

I can see it in the request post body, as metadata. But the quantity in the subscription is staying at 0, so I guess something's missing, we might not be passing it the right way.
Here's on of our test: req_7iPb2MpKb0loIb

OK this is just setting quantity as metadata with is being saved as expected
what are you actually trying to do with this quantity?
Reporting usage for metered billing is explained here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/prices-guide#reporting-usage

We are trying to create the subscription with the right quantity, according to the usage that was made (which we are getting from another place).
As I understand from the link you provided (thank you by the way!), we can't pass it as a quantity in the subscription. Do you have any tips on how we could? I know you guys aren't working with Zapier for this, so I would understand if you can't!

What do you mean by quantity here? Are you talking about metered usage, or a quantity of licensed items?
south cairn
metered usage, sorry!
tidal raft
Ok in that case you need to review the metered usage docs above which explain how to report that usage to a particular subscription item, its not done at the subscription level or at creation time. Usage records are created afterward.

will do, thanks for your help!
