# is_trial_period

An indicator of whether an auto-renewable subscription is in the free trial period.

```
string is_trial_period
```

## Discussion

This field is returned in the JSON response, in the [`responseBody.Latest_receipt_info`](/documentation/AppStoreReceipts/responseBody/Latest_receipt_info-data.dictionary) and [`responseBody.Receipt.In_app`](/documentation/AppStoreReceipts/responseBody/Receipt-data.dictionary/In_app-data.dictionary) arrays.

You can use this value to determine whether the specific record is in a subscription trial period. If a previous subscription period in the receipt has the value `"true"` for either the `is_trial_period` or [`is_in_intro_offer_period`](/documentation/AppStoreReceipts/is_in_intro_offer_period) keys, the user is not eligible for a free trial or introductory price within that subscription group.
