Hi @chdavid
If you use the REST API, you can activate a Subscription that Status is "Pending Acceptance" by one of the following two Endpoints.
Yes, anyway, simply set the date and update Subscription, the Status will be automatically changed to "Active".
Endpoint 1: "CRUD: Update Subscription"
[PUT] https://rest.apisandbox.zuora.com/v1/object/subscription/{Target Subscription's Id}
(For Example: https://rest.apisandbox.zuora.com/v1/object/subscription/2c92c0f86103a992016103fe5fd175aa)
If you use this Endpoint, the Body of the request should be as follows (assuming your customer is ready for 2018/02/01):
{
"ContractAcceptanceDate": "2018-02-01"
}
Endpoint 2: "Update"
[POST] https://rest.apisandbox.zuora.com/v1/action/update
If you use this Endpoint, the Body of the request should be as follows (assuming your customer is ready for 2018/02/01):
{
"objects": [
{
"Id": "2c92c0f86103a992016103fe5fd175aa",
"ContractAcceptanceDate": "2018-02-01"
}
],
"type": "Subscription"
}
Note 1:
When using UI, to change Status from "Pending Acceptance" to "Active", we enter the date in "Customer Acceptance Date".
On the other hand, when using API, "ContractAcceptanceDate" is used instead of "Customer Acceptance Date" field. (I do not know this reason)
Note 2:
When "Update" is used, up to 50 Subscriptions can be activated with per call.
When activating multiple subscriptions, you write in the "objects" array as follows:
{
"objects": [
{
"Id": "2c92c0f86103a992016103fe5fd175aa",
"ContractAcceptanceDate": "2018-02-01"
},
{
"Id": "2c92c0f86103a98e0161040ebf5a0af9",
"ContractAcceptanceDate": "2018-02-01"
}
],
"type": "Subscription"
}
When "CRUD: Update Subscription" is used, only one subscription can be activated with per call.
However, as you can see from the example above, the Body of the Request is simple.
Note 3:
I've only used the REST API, so I do not know much about the SOAP API.
But since you can also use "Update" with SOAP API, you can activate Subscription in the same way as above example.
