POST /v1/invoices/{invoice}/lines/{line_item_id}

Updates an invoice’s line item. Some fields, such as tax_amounts, only live on the invoice line item, so they can only be updated through this endpoint. Other fields, such as amount, live on both the invoice item and the invoice line item, so updates on this endpoint will propagate to the invoice item as well. Updating an invoice’s line item is only possible before the invoice is finalized.

For type=subscription line items, the incoming metadata specified on the request is directly used to set this value, in contrast to type=invoiceitem line items, where any existing metadata on the invoice line is merged with the incoming data.
