Happy path from validateLicense to createUsageRecord

[faribauc]

Hi!

First-time LS here. I have a graduated product that generates a license key for the customer. Then can them use that license key on my API to send requests, and those are billed individually. I can pass the license key as a header and validate the license successfully, the steps that seem necessary to be able to create a usage record seem numerous to my LS novice eyes.

  const { data: user, error: userError } = await getAuthenticatedUser();

  const licenseKey = req.headers['x-license-key'];

  const { error: licenseError, data: license } = await validateLicense(licenseKey as string);

  const { data: subscriptions } = await listSubscriptions({
    filter: {
      orderItemId: license.meta.order_item_id
    }, include: ['subscription-items']
  });

  const subscription = subscriptions.data.shift();

  const usageRecordData = {
    quantity: 1,
    subscriptionItemId: subscription.relationships['subscription-items'].data.shift().id
  };

  const { error: usageRecordError, data: usageRecord } = await createUsageRecord(usageRecordData);

  // Process user request...

This is the shortest path I see, but it's still 4 LS API requests per customer request. It feels heavy. Any idea how I can streamline this process?

Thanks!
