与 Apple 的用于自动更新订阅的 verifyReceipt JSON 混淆

Question

I got the JSON using this url: https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt , so it is about Sandbox, not production.
I have some questions about this JSON because it is not very clear to me, and I think for lot of guys using IAP for the first time, too.

I wnat to remove some user's features if his Premium Account has ended(he cancelled subscription). In my case subscription is 1 week free trial, then $0.99 monthly.

1. Which objects from this JSON should I check?
   
2. Why expire_date is the same as purchase_date (Only few minutes difference)? Is it just up to Sandbox?
3. I subscribed with my test user, got 7 days free trial, then I went to settings and cancelled the subscription, then opened app again and saw the object is_trial_period is set to true ? Is it correct? I then changed my phone's date and made it about 10 days after purchase_date(trial period should be false then I think?) but the object is still true
4. Also, I tested purchases with this phone many times and seems like I got all those receipts in my json, should I check only the last one?
5. Can anyone clear the last object in array called 'status'. In my case it is 0 value.
6. When I want to buy subscription, it is always the [environment:sandbox] version. Is this going to change automatically when the app goes to production?
   
   I think I have read all Apple's documentation and SO's questions and answers about auto-renewable IAPs, please don't paste links ...
   
   I hope there is someone who understood this well to clear all these things about auto-renewable IAP.

Part of JSON, for @Kishan:

 { "expires_date" = "2020-10-12 12:51:58 Etc/GMT"; "expires_date_ms" = 1602507118000; "expires_date_pst" = "2020-10-12 05:51:58 America/Los_Angeles"; "is_in_intro_offer_period" = false; "is_trial_period" = true; "original_purchase_date" = "2020-10-12 12:49:00 Etc/GMT"; "original_purchase_date_ms" = 1602506940000; "original_purchase_date_pst" = "2020-10-12 05:49:00 America/Los_Angeles"; "original_transaction_id" = 1000000725499801; "product_id" = "com.sleepfan.premium"; "purchase_date" = "2020-10-12 12:48:58 Etc/GMT"; "purchase_date_ms" = 1602506938000; "purchase_date_pst" = "2020-10-12 05:48:58 America/Los_Angeles"; quantity = 1; "subscription_group_identifier" = 20691399; "transaction_id" = 1000000728899049; "web_order_line_item_id" = 1000000056417123; }

Answer 1

I think you forgot to read this document

1. Which objects from this JSON should I check?

   You have to check latest_receipt_info from JSON which gives information about your latest transaction

2. Why expire_date is the same as purchase_date (Only a few minutes difference)? Is it just up to Sandbox?

3. I subscribed with my test user, got 7 days free trial, then I went to settings and canceled the subscription, then opened the app again and saw the object is_trial_period is set to true? Is it correct?

   As far as I know, from my experience, test users can't access the settings page to manage their subscriptions on their iPhone. Sandbox subscriptions will just cancel after 5 or 6 repetitions.

4. Can anyone clear the last object in array called 'status'. In my case it is 0 value.

   Either 0 if the receipt is valid, or a status code if there is an error.

5. When I want to buy a subscription, it is always the [environment: sandbox] version. Is this going to change automatically when the app goes to production?

   As far as I know, when you upload your product(which you want to sell as IAP) on iTunes connect, once your product approved, the message of the sandbox will be removed.
