Chargebee Platform Help

Step 1 — Gather context

If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.

What are you trying to do?
- A) Build an API integration — create customers/subscriptions, manage invoices, pull data
- B) Set up + consume webhooks to provision access / drive dunning
- C) Migrate Product Catalog 1.0 → 2.0 (plans/addons → items/item-prices)
- D) Configure dunning / smart retries for failed payments
- E) Understand proration on mid-cycle upgrades/downgrades
- F) Set up the Chargebee MCP server / AgentKit for Claude or Cursor
- G) Decide Chargebee vs another billing tool — that's a selection question (route in Step 2)
Which Product Catalog? PC 2.0 uses items + item prices (current default for new sites); PC 1.0 uses plans + addons (legacy). The API endpoints differ — confirm which your site is on before coding.
Test or live? Use your test site + test API keys first. The Time Machine (test clocks) only exists on test sites.
