User Interface (UI) Overview

The Floating Server UI allows you to manage licenses efficiently. You can:

• Activate and deactivate licenses (online, offline, air-gapped)

• Trigger synchronizations with the License API

• Update server configuration

• Review users registered to licenses and features

Licenses Page

The Licenses page lists all licenses added to the server.

Key Actions

• Add a license: Enter a license key or upload a license file.

To add a bundle license to a floating server:

Ensure the License Type is set to Bundle. (See picture below)

To add a bundle license to a floating server, ensure that your bundle License Policy is configured for floating licenses. Specifically, set Offline Floating License = Yes to enable the license to function as a floating license on the server. (See picture below)

With the release of Floating Server v2.1.0, product features are now fully visible for both individual Floating Licenses and Bundle Licenses.

• Activate / Deactivate licenses:

  • Online: Uses the License API directly

  • Offline / Air-gapped: See Offline & Air-gapped Licensing below

• View details: Inspect license status, expiry, features, and usage

• See registered users: Click on a license to view users associated with that license and its features

• Trigger a sync: Push local consumption data and pull updates (button located at the top right)

Offline & Air‑gapped Licensing

Use this page when the server cannot reach the License API directly.

• Supports generating and uploading activation/deactivation files or codes for offline and air‑gapped environments

• Starting from V2.1.0, this page supports the refreshing of offline licenses and bundles.

• Refer to the respective endpoints for detailed workflows

Offline Refresh

This offline update functionality was introduced in v2.1.0.

To update a license or bundle that has been added to the Floating Server using the offline method, follow these steps:

1

Navigate to the license page

Open the license’s page on the platform.

2

Locate the refresh file

Find the refresh file under the Devices section.

3

Upload the refresh file

Upload this file using the corresponding form on the Floating Server.

Configuration Page

Adjust server-level settings that affect synchronization, connectivity, and other global options.

Periodic Synchronization

The server automatically synchronizes with the License API to maintain a consistent state.

During synchronization:

• Sends local consumption data to the License API

• Pulls license updates, including status, features, expiration dates, and usage limits

How to configure synchronization:

• Set the Sync period on the Configuration page

• Use Sync Data (top-right) to trigger a manual synchronization at any time

Using the Swagger Page

The Swagger interface allows you to test API endpoints directly.

Example: Adding a license

1

Fill the request

Fill out the required fields in the request body.

2

Execute the request

Click Execute.

3

Inspect the response

If successful, the server will return the appropriate response.

Authorization:

• Look for the small lock icon 🔒 (or authorization icon) on the right side of the endpoint

• Click it and provide your JWT token in the format:

Bearer <your-jwt-token>

Using CLI Instead of Swagger

After testing an endpoint in Swagger, you can switch to the command line interface (CLI):

• Copy the equivalent curl command generated by Swagger (visible below the response section)

• Paste it into your terminal to execute the same request
