Custom Fields

5min

A custom field is a key:value pair that is defined for a given product, which you can override for any license you issue or edit.

For more information on defining product custom fields, please read Product Custom Fields.

If defined, the key and the value of a custom field is always returned on License Checks and License Activations. You may modify the value for any custom field for each license.

Set a License Custom Field for a License Policy

License policies are templates you can use when issuing a license, and you can specify a license custom field for any license policy. Any license issued with the policy will use the license custom field

Open the license policy editor by navigating to the license detail page > license policies, and either "add a new license policy" of by clicking on the pencil of an existing license policy.
