@clever cedar do you have a bit more details like a concrete PaymentIntent id?

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 10:36 PM

#

there is a paymentId in the subscription latest invoice

#

i am actually migrating from card element

#

to payment element

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

sure but the Payment Element is just confirming the PaymentIntent

#

so that shouldn't change anything

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

with card element i was creating a payment method with the card element. i was passing that to server side and was attaching that to the customer

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

yes that's why I'm asking for a clear example like pi_123 or sub_123

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 10:38 PM

#

and also adding it as default payment

#

pi_3KZJQmFvraRjEeWm01rlnObl

#

on test environment

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 10:42 PM

#

that one worked right and has a card attached?

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 10:44 PM

#

exactly

#

and also has a payment method

#

pm_1KZNoiFvraRjEeWmDSUuJvny

#

but when i try to call the update method it complains with this message This customer has no attached payment source or default payment method..

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 10:48 PM

#

what update method? I don't see an error

#

ah I see it on the sub. Have you made sure the payment method was attached? This is done async after the confirmation

#

so maybe you called the Subscription update too early?

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 10:56 PM

#

not it was after 😄

#

maybe 1 - 2 minutesw after

#

so after i have my subscription i then try to update it to see if everything works

#

so from server side i call const subscription = await stripe.subscriptions.update(subscriptionID, {
items: [{ id: priceID, quantity: quantity}],
proration_behavior: 'always_invoice',
payment_behavior: 'pending_if_incomplete',
});

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 11:00 PM

#

but that's different

#

that's trying to change a subscription. Did you set a default payment method on the subscription or the customer?

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 11:01 PM

#

with card element i used to create a paymentmethod, attach it to customer and make that default payment before i create the subscription

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 11:01 PM

#

If not we don't know what card to use. It's attached, sure, but it's not the default. What if you had more than one

#

the same thing happened with the card element

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 11:01 PM

#

but with payment elements, i have to create the subscription before i have a payment method

#

so i can get a client secret

scarlet heart Mar 4, 2022, 11:01 PM

#

So in that case you need to catch the successful payment and then explicitly mark that PaymentMethod as the default for future invoices

clever cedar Mar 4, 2022, 11:04 PM

#

so i will try to get the succesfull payment ident from the subscription so i can get the payment method, and then will do somthing like
await stripe.paymentMethods.attach(paymentMethodID, {
customer: customerID,
});
// Set the payment method as the 'default' for this customer
await stripe.customers.update(customerID, {
invoice_settings: {
default_payment_method: paymentMethodID,
},
});

#

did i get that right?
