hello, mind sharing the PaymentIntent ID?
also completed isn't a status on a PaymentIntent
do you mean status: succeeded ?
hoary egret
thanks, lookiong

Thx!
hoary egret
ah so
this is the legacy "Cards" vs the new PaymentMethods
Your Customer has a "Card" object attached to them, on their sources: field
and as a result, is their default_source as well

you created a Subscription without passing a default_payment_method: in that request
when you created this Subscription from the Dashboard, the Dashboard uses the Customer's default_source and that same is set on the PaymentIntent's source field.

Aha, so if I would’ve used The stripe payment element I would’ve seen a payment method on the intent, correct?
hoary egret
well technically no, PaymentElement only confirms a PaymentIntent but it depends on what happened on the step of Subscription creation
in that, you can either pass default_payment_method: where the value can either be a PaymentMethod ID (like pm_123) or a Card ID like "card_345"
and then the PaymentIntent under the Subscription's Invoice will have the payment_method: field set

I’m at this step of the subscription process:
https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements#default-payment-method
And it’s assuming that a payment_method is present on the intent
How’s that?
hoary egret
yep so you need to pass the default_payment_method in that Subscription creation request
inner verge
But how can I if the customer hasn’t paid yet?
I’m following the above guide step for step
hoary egret
ah sorry I missed, so now I better understand
if you're following that guide, then you create a Subscription with payment_behavior: default_incomplete
like here: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements#create-subscription
and yep correct, you don't have a PaymentMethod at that time
then on your client_side, you PaymentElement to collect a PaymentMethod on the PaymentIntent that is created for that Subscription: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements#collect-payment
and that should give you a succeeded PaymentIntent which has a payment_method on it (not source or Card object)
and then you can do this step to take that PaymentMethod and update it as the Subscription's default_payment_method: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/build-subscriptions?ui=elements#default-payment-method

Awesome, thx!
