Hi folks, I'm having some issues with invoices and charges, namely concerning the description field. What I would like is to set the description field (of either the invoice or the charge) and have this show up in the charges page, rather than Invoice ASDF-0001. So far I've tried:
- Setting it in the Invoice.description field without any such luck
- Updating the Charge.description field after varying time intervals
For these options I have always seen the correct description in the event log, but it never reflects in the actual view. The only reliable method I have found is by manually editing the field in the browser, but naturally this isn't scalable. Is there any way to achieve what I'd like?
In short, updates to the description field are reflected in the API, but not in the stripe interface for charges
An example request is req_rBngD6i9X5RfXL

Thanks! Give me a few minutes to look into this.
So you are editing the description of the charge, but I think what you want to update is the description of the PaymentIntent pi_3LNvcjGTamYdUMAn2NQeNljB

When I do it through the interface, it updates the charge req_6Hr44l4fc07X8h
"object": "payment_intent", 🤦♂️

Yes it's the PaymentIntent, since the dashboard page is showing the PaymentIntent.
