Hello. Can you share the ID of the failing API request? https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request
That API link isn't really relevant as that's for Invoice Line Item objects. There's no metadata parameter for Checkout Session line_items: https://stripe.com/docs/api/checkout/sessions/create#create_checkout_session-line_items

Got it.
So, when I'm creating items with subscription i can set metadata - https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/object#subscription_object-items-data-metadata
But when I'm creating items through checkout session, I can't
right?
orchid oasis
Correct. What's the use case?
small agate
I want to pass some keys for line items for matching it. For example when the subscription was downgraded and I want to update line items ids in my DB

Hi! I'm taking over ynnoj.
Would it work if you added metadata on the Checkout Session or on the Subscription itself?
small agate
Yes, it's my plan B. I'll use metadata on session or subscription
fluid oasis
The other option is to update the subscription items, since they have a metadat field: https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscription_items/update#update_subscription_item-metadata
small agate
as option, yes
