Update Stripe subscriptions’ metadata

Upon a new Stripe subscription, I would like to

  • Create a license (using a different service), and
  • Store the license ID in the Stripe subscription metadata.

This would enable me to suspend the license upon Stripe subscription cancellation.

I haven’t figured out yet how to update Stripe subscriptions’ metadata. Any hints?

Hey @nschloe just wanted to close the loop here! @Troy Tessalone is correct in that your short-term solution would be to access the Stripe API directly:

You’ll need to use the Webhooks app to leverage the Stripe API.

https://stripe.com/docs/api/subscriptions/update

 

 

Otherwise, if you contact our support team, they will be able to log a feature request on your behalf for updating meta data: https://zapier.com/app/get-help. 🙂

Thanks @Troy Tessalone !

@nschloe were you able to get this workflow up and running with webhooks as Troy suggested?

Let us know if that did the trick or if we can help any further!
