3rd March 2023
๐ Bugfix
In the following scenario we were previously logged usage twice:
- User has move credits (i.e. 100)
- User starts a calibration
- User start an action run before the calibration is finished (causing the action run to be queued)
- The action run costs 50 credits (for example)
- We deduct 50 credits from the users account
- When the calibration finishes the action run starts
- We then incorrectly deducted another 50 credits from their account
In the event that the second deduction of credits took them over the amount that they have on their account (and they were unsubscribed) an error would be raised and the action take run would be deleted.
This bugfix resolves the issue where we logged the usage again when the calibration completed
2nd March 2023
๐ Bugfix
- If a run used move credits and stripe credits an error would be raised when logging the credits to stripe. This caused the user to not have their usage logged to stripe.
- This bugfix now correctly allows the usage to be logged to stripe
