Retry a failed YoPrint payment

v1Operation ID v1_public_setting_subscription_current_retry_payment

This changes what your shop pays YoPrint. It acts on your YoPrint subscription, through Stripe, not on your customers' payments.

Charges the card on file for the failed renewal invoice shown by the retry preview. Send the preview's preview_id and a new operation_id; nothing else is accepted.

Billing operations. Every change is one billing operation, named by an operation_id you choose: 16 to 64 letters, digits, _ or -, new for each change. Keep it. The answer is the operation, as {"data": {...}} without success or status, and its HTTP status says where it stands:

  • 200: done (terminal: true, outcome: succeeded). Reload the subscription.
  • 202: still settling, or it needs a recovery. Read it again with GET .../setting/subscription/operation/{operation_id}, and call .../recover when next_action is recover.
  • 402: the payment failed (outcome: payment_failed). Follow next_action (use_different_card or update_card_then_retry).
  • 422: either refused before anything happened (the error envelope, with error.code), or the operation stopped safely (outcome: safe_failed, with error_code and next_action).
  • 409: another billing operation is in progress for the team (billing_operation_conflict).
  • 503: Stripe or YoPrint's billing setup can't be reached (billing_provider_unavailable).

Never start a second change because an answer was lost or slow: read or recover the same operation_id instead, so you can't be charged twice.

Permission

The team owner, or a member with the Manage Billing permission. Manage Settings alone is not enough.

Side effects

Errors

  • 401The API key is missing or wrong (unauthenticated).

  • 402The provider declined payment and the terminal operation records the outcome.

    When
    The card was declined again (outcome: payment_failed).
    Fix
    Follow next_action: replace the card, then retry.
  • 403You are not allowed to do this. api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, with unauthorized or user_is_not_authorized.

    When
    You are not the owner and your role lacks Manage Billing. The body is {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}, without the error envelope.
    Fix
    Use the owner's key, or that of a member with Manage Billing.
  • 404Not found. page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.

  • 409A different billing operation owns the team lifecycle or frozen state changed.

    When
    Another billing operation is in progress (billing_operation_conflict).
    Fix
    Wait, then read the preview again.
  • 422Validation failed or a terminal safe failure was recorded.

    When
    Refused before any charge: other fields (invalid_payment_retry_context), a missing or malformed preview_id (validation_failed, payment_retry_preview_required), or a retry limit (payment_retry_limit_reached, payment_retry_rate_limited).
    Fix
    Send only operation_id and preview_id from a fresh preview.
    When
    The invoice, card or Stripe state changed since the preview: the operation stops safely (outcome: safe_failed, error_code such as payment_retry_preview_changed, next_action: start_new_operation). If the charge had already been sent, it answers 202 with next_action: recover instead.
    Fix
    Read the preview again and retry with its new preview_id and a new operation_id.
  • 503Billing provider configuration or readback is temporarily unavailable.

    When
    Billing is temporarily unavailable (billing_provider_unavailable).
    Fix
    Read the operation again later.

Notes

  • Part of your YoPrint subscription: what your shop pays YoPrint, not your customers' payments.
  • AI apps (MCP connections) can't call this operation: they get 403 agent_operation_not_available. Use a personal API key.
