Update price quantity
This endpoint can be used to update the quantity for a fixed fee.
To be eligible, the subscription must currently be active and the price specified must be a fixed fee (not
usage-based). This operation will immediately update the quantity for the fee, or if a effective_date
is passed
in, will update the quantity on the requested date at midnight in the customer’s timezone.
In order to change the fixed fee quantity as of the next draft invoice for this subscription, pass
change_option=upcoming_invoice
without an effective_date
specified.
If the fee is an in-advance fixed fee, it will also issue an immediate invoice for the difference for the remainder of the billing period.
Authorizations
API Keys can be issued in the Orb's web application.
Path Parameters
Body
Price for which the quantity should be updated. Must be a fixed fee.
The date that the quantity change should take effect, localized to the customer's timezone. Ifthis parameter is not passed in, the quantity change is effective according to change_option
.
Determines when the change takes effect. Note that if effective_date
is specified, this defaults to effective_date
. Otherwise, this defaults to immediate
unless it's explicitly set to `upcoming_invoice.
immediate
, upcoming_invoice
, effective_date
If false, this request will fail if it would void an issued invoice or create a credit note. Consider using this as a safety mechanism if you do not expect existing invoices to be changed.
Response
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
.
A customer is a buyer of your products, and the other party to the billing relationship.
In Orb, customers are assigned system generated identifiers automatically, but it's often desirable to have these
match existing identifiers in your system. To avoid having to denormalize Orb ID information, you can pass in an
external_customer_id
with your own identifier. See
Customer ID Aliases for further information about how these
aliases work in Orb.
In addition to having an identifier in your system, a customer may exist in a payment provider solution like
Stripe. Use the payment_provider_id
and the payment_provider
enum field to express this mapping.
A customer also has a timezone (from the standard IANA timezone database), which defaults to your account's timezone. See Timezone localization for information on what this timezone parameter influences within Orb.
The Plan resource represents a plan that can be subscribed to by a customer. Plans define the billing behavior of the subscription. You can see more about how to configure prices in the Price resource.
The date Orb starts billing for this subscription.
The date Orb stops billing for this subscription.
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.
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.
active
, ended
, upcoming
The current plan phase that is active, only if the subscription's plan has phases.
Determines the default memo on this subscriptions' invoices. Note that if this is not provided, it is determined by the plan configuration.
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.
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.
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.
