Identifying the Symptom

When working with Chargebee's API, you might encounter an error message stating 'Subscription Not Found'. This error typically occurs when attempting to retrieve or manipulate a subscription that does not exist in your Chargebee account.

Common Scenarios

  • Attempting to access a subscription with an incorrect ID.
  • Using a subscription ID that has been deleted or never existed.

Exploring the Issue

The 'Subscription Not Found' error indicates that the subscription ID you provided in your API request does not match any existing subscription in your Chargebee account. This could be due to a typo, an incorrect ID, or a misunderstanding of the subscription lifecycle.

Understanding Subscription IDs

Subscription IDs are unique identifiers assigned to each subscription in Chargebee. They are crucial for performing operations like updates, cancellations, or fetching subscription details. Ensure that the ID you are using is accurate and corresponds to an active subscription.

Steps to Resolve the Issue

Follow these steps to troubleshoot and resolve the 'Subscription Not Found' error:

Step 1: Verify the Subscription ID

Ensure that the subscription ID you are using is correct. Double-check the ID in your database or application logs. You can also log into your Chargebee dashboard and search for the subscription ID to confirm its existence.

Step 2: Check for Typographical Errors

Review the subscription ID for any typographical errors. Even a small mistake can lead to the 'Subscription Not Found' error. Ensure that the ID is copied accurately from your records.

Step 3: Confirm Subscription Status

Log into your Chargebee account and navigate to the Subscriptions section. Verify that the subscription is active and has not been deleted or archived.

Step 4: Use Chargebee API to List Subscriptions

Utilize the Chargebee API to list all subscriptions and confirm the presence of the subscription ID. You can use the following API call:

curl -X GET https://{site}.chargebee.com/api/v2/subscriptions \
-u {api_key}: \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"

Replace {site} with your Chargebee site name and {api_key} with your API key. This will return a list of subscriptions, allowing you to verify the ID.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the 'Subscription Not Found' error in Chargebee. Ensuring the accuracy of subscription IDs and understanding their lifecycle is crucial for seamless API operations. For more information, refer to the Chargebee API Documentation.
