Licenses

Licenses lists the licenses the service has issued. Select a license to enable the toolbar:

  • Generate license creates and signs a new license (see below).
  • Edit changes the license terms, licensee and properties; the license is signed again when needed.
  • Revoke marks the license as revoked. The service then refuses new activations and floating license requests for it and invalidates its tokens.
  • Export license key… saves the signed license as <license id>.licenses in the License export folder set in the settings of the connection.
  • Email the license… sends the license to the licensee with an email template stored in the service.
  • Delete removes the license.

A license with its dates, licensee, template and properties

The license detail shows the user key masked. Below the cards, the Tokens tab lists the tokens of the license, with Allocate token and Delete token, and the Traces tab lists its recorded events.

To generate a license, click Generate license, pick a template and a signature key, then complete the form. The service builds the license from the template, which supplies the product and the features, fields and restrictions defined there; the form sets what is specific to this license. The key button in User key generates a key from the configured user key format, and the button next to it copies the key.
