Bodyapplication/jsonrequired
Order resource.
orderTypestringrequired

Specifies the type of order. An order may be a subscription or a one-time purchase.

Note: The order type cannot be changed after creation.

Value:"subscription-order"
Discriminator
customerIdstring, <= 50 characters(CustomerId)required

Specifies if a subscription ends after a trial period. If this value is true, recurring settings are ignored.

Default:false
invoiceTimeShiftobject or null(InvoiceTimeShift)
Shifts issue time and due time of invoices for this subscription. This setting overrides plan settings. To use plan settings, set this value to `null`. To use multiple plans in one subscription, all plans must have the same billing period, this property enables the customer to subscribe to different plans.
autopayboolean

Specifies if payment attempts are made automatically. If autopay is enabled, the payment is retrieved from the customer on the renewal date using the payment instrument that is set at paymentInstrumentId, or the default payment instrument on the subscription.

Default:true
startTimestring or null, (date-time)

Date and time when the subscription starts. If this value is null, the current time is used. This value cannot be more than one service period in the past.

Default:null
Example:null
renewalTimestring or null, (date-time)
Date and time when the subscription renews.
paymentInstrumentIdstring or null, <= 50 characters
ID of the payment instrument to use for autopay. If this value is not provided, or if the payment instrument is inactive, the customer's default payment instrument is used.
Example:"inst_0YVB8KPKNXCBR9EDX7JHSED75N"

One of:
Contact's information.
billingAddressContactObject (object) or null
One of:
Contact's information.
abandonTimestring or null, (date-time)

Date and time when the pending order is automatically abandoned. If this value is not passed during order creation, a pending order TTL setting is used to calculate the value.

delinquencyPeriodstring or null

Length of time, in ISO-8601 durations format, which is added to the due time of the order when setting the delinquency time for all related invoices. When the delinquency time of an invoice is reached, the order is automatically canceled.

  • If the delinquencyPeriod value is null, the order does not change state and remains active. You must explicitly configure the delinquency period to enable automatic cancellation of unpaid orders.
  • If you add a delinquency period to an active order, it is applied to all new invoices created for the order. It is not applied to the unpaid and past-due invoices. To apply a delinquency period to unpaid and past-due invoices, set the delinquencyTime parameter using the upsert an invoice API operation.

If this value is not passed during order creation, an order delinquency period setting is used to calculate the value.

Default:null
Example:"P7D"
couponIdsArray of strings or nullwrite-only

List of coupons to redeem on the customer and restrict to this order.

For more information, see Coupons.

This parameter uses the following logic:

  • If an empty array is supplied, all applied coupon redemptions are canceled.
  • If a list of coupons is supplied, unapplied coupons in the list are applied. Coupons that have already been applied do not change state. Applied coupons that are not supplied in list are canceled.

If the list of applied coupons on a pending order is changed by this parameter during an order update, the invoice for the order is reissued.

Example:"PO123456"
sandboxRetentionobject or null(SandboxRetention)

Sandbox recurring order retention. In the sandbox environment, a recurring order is canceled 90 days after it is created or on the start date of the policy, whichever is later. The order is not canceled if it is retained or if the organization is excluded from the policy. This property is returned in the sandbox environment only, for recurring orders. In the live environment, if the request includes this property with a value, a validation error is returned. A null value in a request does not update the property.
