I'm developing a NextJS app with the possibility of subscriptions via paypal, using the `@paypal/react-paypal-js` package.
I had a custom logic to apply coupons and promo codes that consisted on having coupons stored in a data base and an input where the client inserted the promo code value. If the value inserted corresponded to any of the coupons available, it would override the price value in billing_cycles in the actions.subscription.create function (example below).
createSubscription={(data, actions) => {
return actions.subscription.create({
plan_id: planId,
plan: {
billing_cycles: [
{
...billing_cycles[0],
pricing_scheme: {
fixed_price: {
value:
!!appliedCoupon && !appliedCoupon.isExpired && appliedCoupon.isRedeemable
? formatPriceForPromoCode(
billing_cycles[0].pricing_scheme.fixed_price.value,
appliedCoupon.data.percent_off / 100
)
: billing_cycles[0].pricing_scheme.fixed_price.value,
currency_code: billing_cycles[0].pricing_scheme.fixed_price.currency_code
}
}
}
]
}
});
}}
This logic worked fine for a long time, and all of a sudden it stoped working throwing the following error: Billing plan Override is not allowed due to insufficient permissions.
Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fixe it. Also if you know of a better way to implement coupons in paypal I'd also like to know.
Thank you
