Adding a product license online is an essential operation that allows for real-time license activation and management through the Floating Server. Below, you will find the steps to add a license using either the Floating Server API or User Interface.

Adding with the API

To add a license to the Floating Server, you can use the /addProduct API endpoint. This requires passing the product code along with either the license key or username/password combination as query parameters.

For more detailed information, visit Add license.

Adding with the User Interface

In the Floating Server UI, you can activate a license online using either User Authentication or Key Authentication. Follow the steps below based on the authentication method you choose.

User Authentication

This method requires you to provide the product code, along with the username and password associated with the license.

How to Refresh

To refresh or update an online license, there is no need for a dedicated endpoint or specific location in the UI. You can simply re-add the existing license. For example, if License A is already visible in the UI, you can still navigate to the page and add License A again, which will effectively refresh it.
