# Common

{% hint style="info" %}
LicenseSpring’s new [**Go SDK V2**](broken://pages/ae2a7abe98ac54bb39ee8fc9e008316b6c214907) is now available! This version is a complete rewrite with breaking changes and will receive all future updates and support.

The legacy Go SDK (v1) is deprecated and maintained for backward compatibility only. New users should use v2.
{% endhint %}

Go SDK is divided into 3 clients:

* Floating client
* License client
* Management client

### Response Types

There are 3 response wrapper types. These are used for future extendability and ease of use.

* Client.Response
* Management\_response.SearchResult
* Error

#### Client.Response

Response type is used by all 3 clients, and it's a generic wrapper for any request:

```go
type Response[T any] struct {
	Payload []byte // raw response JSON
	Value   T      // typed value
	Error   error  // error, if it exists
}
```

As an example, license\_client.ActivateLicense would return client.Response\[LicenseResponse], so response.Value would be of type LicenseResponse. Example:

```go
resp := client.ActivateLicense(context.Background(), ...)

// access LicenseResponse fields
resp.Value.LicenseKey

// or get whole LicenseResponse struct
license := resp.Value
license.LicenseKey
```

#### Management\_response.SearchResult

SearchResult is used only in management client to wrap search/list request responses. For example, for [**ListCustomers**](https://docs.licensespring.com/docs/list-customers) requests.

#### Error

Error type is commonly used as response for Delete requests, e.g. [**DeleteCustomer**](https://docs.licensespring.com/docs/delete-customer).
