Rate Limit on large invoices
Bug report
- Extension name: firestore-stripe-invoices
Describe the bug
Due to the extension making a request for each line item on an invoice, I am hitting the rate limit when multiple invoices are triggered at the same time:
ext-firestore-stripe-invoices-sendInvoice
'Request rate limit exceeded. You can learn more about rate limits here https://stripe.com/docs/rate-limits.',
Stripe invoices can have up to 250 line items, and this specific scenario was a single invoice with >100 line items.
Expected behavior
Due to this being a cloud function, triggered by a document creation, it is not inherently time sensitive.
With a default function time-out of 5min and a maximum of ~250 requests, SendInvoices function could easily send each request on an interval of 1 second for the least impact, allowing 100 asynchronous invoice triggers to run side by side.
Preferably a single request to create the invoice would allow the solution to scale better, i'm not sure why it doesn't?
