In-depth guide

Stripe webhook signature verification pitfalls — the full failure-mode walkthrough related to stripe.com, checked against official docs, with linked verified routes.

Steps

Identify the meter id (`mtr_...`) you previously deactivated, e.g. via `GET /v1/billing/meters`.
Call `POST /v1/billing/meters/{id}/reactivate` (no body parameters required).
Confirm the returned meter shows `status: active`.
Re-attach the meter to a price if needed; once active it can accept events and be referenced by prices again.

Known gotchas

Meter deactivation is reversible — use the `reactivate` endpoint rather than recreating the meter, which would lose historical association.
While deactivated, events for the meter are not accepted; reactivating does not backfill usage that occurred during the deactivated window.
