Create a Stripe Usage Record

Usage records allow you to report customer usage and metrics to Stripe for metered billing of subscription prices

Usage records created using Djstripe's UsageRecord.create() method will both create and sync the created UsageRecord object with your db.

Note

UsageRecord objects created directly will not sync because Stripe does not expose a way to retrieve UsageRecord objects directly. They can thus only be synced at creation time.

Code:

from djstripe.models import UsageRecord

# create and sync UsageRecord object
UsageRecord.create(id=<SUBSCRIPTION_ITEM_ID>, quantity=<SUBSCRIPTION_ITEM_QUANTITY>, timestamp=timestamp)
