Invoice Creation through API:
Did anyone create an Invoice through API? please let me know if I need help on this.
Do you have an example body for creating the invoice with the postman
what are the parameters we need to follow?
Do we need to follow any sequence of action before making create invoice API?
I want to create an invoice for a subscription through API callout? I do not want to use subscription automated invoices as don't want to pass the usage history to Stripe.
I'm using the Stripe postman collections, but getting the below response
{
"error": {
"code": "invoice_no_subscription_line_items",
"doc_url": "https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/invoice-no-subscription-line-items",
"message": "Nothing to invoice for subscription",
"param": "subscription",
"type": "invalid_request_error"
}
}
Moved it here
done

thanks 🙂
instead of creating an invoice, you should create a subscription and extend on latest_invoice, this way you will have the invoice object on the subscription that you just created

My subscription is metered and businesses don't want to pass the usage information to Stripe as they are using Salesforce to collect the usage and calculate the total amount and taxes in salesforce itself and then charge the customer with API or create an invoice through API
stark meadow
then you're not creating a Subscription in Stripe right?
