Known Pitfalls

Pitfall	Detail
Search query syntax	`STRIPE_GET_V1_CUSTOMERS_SEARCH_CUSTOMERS` requires field-prefixed queries (e.g., `email:'x'` ). Bare strings without field prefixes are invalid and will error.
Subscription payment method	`default_payment_method` is not required if using `trial_period_days` or `collection_method='send_invoice'` . Otherwise, the subscription may fail to activate.
Payment method attachment	A `PaymentMethod` must be in a detached state before attaching to a customer. Already-attached methods will error.
Pagination cursors	Use `starting_after` / `ending_before` with object IDs, not page numbers. Extract the last/first object ID from each response.
Balance amounts in cents	All monetary amounts are in the smallest currency unit (e.g., cents for USD). 1000 = $10.00.
Subscription status default	`GET_CUSTOMERS_CUSTOMER_SUBSCRIPTIONS` excludes canceled subscriptions by default. Pass `status: "all"` to include them.
