Parameters

customerstringRequired
The ID of the customer who will be billed when this invoice item is billed.

descriptionstring
An arbitrary string which you can attach to the invoice item. The description is displayed in the invoice for easy tracking.

metadataobject

periodobject
The period associated with this invoice item. When set to different values, the period will be rendered on the invoice. If you have Stripe Revenue Recognition enabled, the period will be used to recognize and defer revenue. See the Revenue Recognition documentation for details.
