Do you have a request ID? Here's how you can find a request ID: https://support.stripe.com/questions/finding-the-id-for-an-api-request

[errant magnet]

I have a request id: req_rMXF1gFhuUsiHL if you'd like to see what we sent to it.

[blissful shuttle]

It looks like the request is formatted wrong because it's coming in like this:
{ phases: { 0: { items: { 0: { price: "price_0J5cZ4F23R9jbzPTJntOn0DD" } }, proration_behavior: "always_invoice" } }, proration_behavior: "always_invoice" }

But it shouldn't have those index values as keys

[errant magnet]

OH! It looks like this is a postman client issue. DOH! 😂

I did manage to fix the client request, but get the same error: req_VksNF6N2HssWYM

[blissful shuttle]

proration_behavior is still being set on both the phase array and outside of the phase array. Can you remove the one outside of it?

[errant magnet]

I've already tested that as well via the previous requests req_jmBqvxftIRc9DE and req_pSuOJVCf2xJSfq

Also, I'm unsure what you mean by the wrong formatting. After digging into this issue we ended up swapping to the Stripe Node.Js SDK and got the same formatting:

Request id: req_pSuOJVCf2xJSfq

Does the subscription you're using have proration behavior set already?

[errant magnet]

As far as I'm aware a Subscription cannot hold a any proration behavior set on it.

The Subscription Schedule has a default proration behavior on it's phase [0] object, which is set to create_prorations (default).

Can you copy/paste your code so I can try to repro on my end?

[errant magnet]

const results = await stripe.subscriptionSchedules.update('sub_sched_0L897nF23R9jbzPTSub6IZxw', {
    "proration_behavior": "always_invoice",
    "phases": [
        {
            "items": [
                {
                    "price": "price_0J5cZ4F23R9jbzPTJntOn0DD",
                },
            ],
            // "proration_behavior": "always_invoice",
        },
    ],

});

The request to create the subscription did not include any proration behavior: req_FgJoT9XO6T35Mj

[blissful shuttle]

If you set proration_behavior on the Subscription, does the error go away?

[errant magnet]

That's an unusual request from what I understand. But for science, updating the subscription: req_lQwskKSIjNhhdL (worked)!

Retrying the subscription schedule Update: req_EYxuoNVgJKdidM (did not work).

[blissful shuttle]

Okay, let me run on my end (p.s. thanks for bearing with me)

[errant magnet]

No worries. I appreciate all your help so far! 😄

[blissful shuttle]

Okay, I figured out what's wrong

So, the error is really misleading, because it implies that you can set always_invoice on phases.proration_behavior, but it's not supported right now. This is a feature that's being built out and I'm working with one of the internal product engineers to see if we can make this feel more intuitive while they finish building it

Apologies for the back and forth. The error is definitely on our end

[errant magnet]

Man, we find all the fun bugs. 😂

To be fair your docs do say it's unsupported. We missed that, too.

[blissful shuttle]

I know, I feel like this isn't even the first bug you and I have found. Thanks for being consistently consistent 😅

[errant magnet]

Is there a way for us to be emailed when this feature lands?

[blissful shuttle]

Unfortunately you won't have access to the Github notifications that go out when it's updated.
