Hi there, can you share with me the subscription schedule ID?

[nimble tree]

Hey, sure, this sub_sched_1LAUUaE9n8wrXE2iHxzlaNZv

(is in test mode)

actually I want to schedule the update on sub_1LAURhE9n8wrXE2iBwK4YWeo

\Stripe\SubscriptionSchedule::create([
'customer' => $customer_stripe,
'end_behavior' => 'release',
'start_date' => $current_period_end,
'phases' => [
[
'items' => [
[
'price' => $price_id,
'quantity' => 1,
],
],
'iterations' => 1,
],
],
]);

this is the code used

OK, you should use the from_subscription param to create a subscription schedule for an existing subscription https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscription_schedules/create?lang=curl#create_subscription_schedule-from_subscription

After that, you can update the schedule's phases by including the downgrade phase https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscription_schedules/update?lang=curl#update_subscription_schedule-phases

ok, so specify the phases is mandatory, because I've tried to do that with from_subscription

in this way

    $subscriptionUpdate = \Stripe\SubscriptionSchedule::create([
                    'end_behavior' => 'release',
                    'from_subscription' => $subscription_id,
                    'phases' => [
                        [
                            'items' => [
                                [
                                    'price' => $price_id,
                                    'quantity' => 1,
                                ],
                            ],
                            'iterations' => 1,
                        ],
                    ],
                ]);

this seems update directly the subscription, without waiting for the end of the current cycle

so I need to add there the "current phase" with the current price_id and the next phase with the new downgraded price_id?

You don't need to pass the phases when creating a subscription schedule with from_subscription param

[nimble tree]

ok but i don't want to update the subscription now, I want to schedule the update to the end of the current billing cycle

so you mean, something like this?

$subscriptionUpdate = \Stripe\SubscriptionSchedule::create([
                    'end_behavior' => 'release',
                    'from_subscription' => $subscription_id,
        
                            'items' => [
                                [
                                    'price' => $price_id,
                                    'quantity' => 1,
                                ],
                            ],
                            'iterations' => 1,
            
                ]);

You need to make two API calls

1. Create the subscription schedule with from_subscription param
2. Update the subscription schedule with the downgrading phase.

Ok, so is mandatory to

1. create subscription schedule (only with from_subscription param?)
2. update subscription schedule with the downgrade plan

to achieve this result, I'll try now

basically, like this stackoverflow response
