There are several options how licensing can be enabled for the above scenario.
Application configuration can be extended by an additional attribute customerNumber
. This parameter needs to be specified using Licensee/Customer' unique number and match the corresponding NetLicensing's attribute.
While sending the validation request to NetLicensing, this attribute can be used to identify customers.
An offline license file can be downloaded and shared with the customer. The application will need to read this file and drive application behaviour. Note: offline license files do not support metered licensing models, such as Floating, Node-Locked and Pay-per-Use.
Option 2 Offline licensing file can be used as the source for the licenseeNumber
attribute, to be used in option 1 _Extended application configuration.
An application can call online validation service and fall back to the offline file in case of unavailability of the internet connection.
Question Our desktop application is used by a single user and it doesn't have a login, so we cannot identify the customer by email. Is it possible that a license key is generated and the license key is sent to the user's email?
