Subscription

Update trial for subscription

This endpoint is used to update the trial end date for a subscription. The new trial end date must be within the time range of the current plan (i.e. the new trial end date must be on or after the subscription's start date on the current plan, and on or before the subscription end date).

In order to retroactively remove a trial completely, the end date can be set to the transition date of the subscription to this plan (or, if this is the first plan for this subscription, the subscription's start date). In order to end a trial immediately, the keyword immediate can be provided as the trial end date.

By default, Orb will shift only the trial end date (and price intervals that start or end on the previous trial end date), and leave all other future price intervals untouched. If the shift parameter is set to true, Orb will shift all subsequent price and adjustment intervals by the same amount as the trial end date shift (so, e.g., if a plan change is scheduled or an add-on price was added, that change will be pushed back by the same amount of time the trial is extended).

Path parameters

subscription_idstring required

Request body

shiftboolean

If true, shifts subsequent price and adjustment intervals (preserving their durations, but adjusting their absolute dates).

Response

metadataobject required

User specified key-value pairs for the resource. If not present, this defaults to an empty dictionary. Individual keys can be removed by setting the value to null, and the entire metadata mapping can be cleared by setting metadata to null.

idstring required

namestring required

The name of the subscription.

start_datestring date-time required

The date Orb starts billing for this subscription.

end_datestring date-time nullable required

The date Orb stops billing for this subscription.

created_atstring date-time required

current_billing_period_start_datestring date-time nullable required

The start date of the current billing period. This is an inclusive timestamp; the instant returned is exactly the beginning of the billing period. Set to null if the subscription is not currently active.

current_billing_period_end_datestring date-time nullable required

The end of the current billing period. This is an exclusive timestamp, such that the instant returned is not part of the billing period. Set to null for subscriptions that are not currently active.

status'active' | 'ended' | 'upcoming' required

active_plan_phase_orderinteger nullable required

The current plan phase that is active, only if the subscription's plan has phases.

default_invoice_memostring nullable required

Determines the default memo on this subscriptions' invoices. Note that if this is not provided, it is determined by the plan configuration.

auto_collectionboolean nullable required

Determines whether issued invoices for this subscription will automatically be charged with the saved payment method on the due date. This property defaults to the plan's behavior. If null, defaults to the customer's setting.

auto_issuanceboolean nullable required

Determines whether invoices for this subscription will be automatically issued. This resolves the effective setting for the subscription: a subscription-level override if set, otherwise the customer-level setting, otherwise the account-level default.

net_termsinteger required

Determines the difference between the invoice issue date for subscription invoices as the date that they are due. A value of 0 here represents that the invoice is due on issue, whereas a value of 30 represents that the customer has a month to pay the invoice.

billing_cycle_dayinteger required

The day of the month on which the billing cycle is anchored. If the maximum number of days in a month is greater than this value, the last day of the month is the billing cycle day (e.g. billing_cycle_day=31 for April means the billing period begins on the 30th.

invoicing_thresholdstring nullable required
