FAQ

Questions about Finalize Invoice.

What does the Finalize Invoice action do in Stripe?
Finalizes a draft invoice so it's ready for payment. After finalization the invoice is sent to the customer (if auto_advance) and Stripe starts collection.
What inputs does Finalize Invoice require?
Required: Invoice ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Stripe returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Finalize Invoice support batch operations?
Yes. Run Finalize Invoice inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Stripe's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
