Invoice items

A line added to an upcoming invoice.

Status: contracted_test. In the machine-checked test-mode contract (openapi.subset.json) and the API Reference: create only. Served by the fluveo-billing sidecar (ADR 0019); promoted 2026-07-13. Retrieve/update/list are not in the contract yet. The Stripe-Version header is optional. See API coverage.

An Invoice Item is a single charge you add to a customer’s next invoice — a one-off fee or an amount-based line. It sits pending until an invoice create with pending_invoice_items_behavior=include sweeps it in (omitted or exclude leaves it pending, as in Stripe); the invoice’s lines echo each item’s description and amount.

Served operations: create (in the contract), the pending-item list, and delete of a pending item (DELETE /v1/invoiceitems/{id}, served but not in the contract yet); retrieve and update are not served. Delete answers {id, object: "invoiceitem", deleted: true}. An unknown id, another account’s or mode’s item, or an already deleted one answers the same resource_missing error. An item on an open, paid or void invoice answers Stripe’s 400. An item on a draft invoice answers a 400 and is not deleted (Stripe deletes it and re-totals the draft). The create response is the minimal confirmation ({id, object: "invoiceitem", customer}); the full line shape appears on the invoice’s lines after the invoice is created.

Hidden from the public API

Each item below is hidden because it does not follow the Stripe parity ADR (ADR 0004 as amended). The hidden public /v1 registry lists every hidden item. Public /v1 answers a hidden operation as an unknown URL, refuses a hidden request parameter or value with Stripe’s invalid_request_error, and omits a hidden response key.
