# Surface payment group id and payment session id on subscription billing attempts

We've introduced the [`SubscriptionBillingAttempt`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/unstable/objects/SubscriptionBillingAttempt) object to track subscription billing executions. This new functionality provides the following features:

* Records each subscription billing process execution
* Uses idempotency keys to prevent duplicate orders
* Creates orders upon successful billing attempts

Existing Partner integrations aren't affected.
