Creating and Activating a License#

To create a new License, you need to click the "Create" button in the "Licenses" table and fill out the form that appears in the "License" popup window.

Fields and checkbox to fill in the "License" popup window:

  • Name * – a mandatory field for entering the License name;
  • Key * – a mandatory field for entering the key provided by the vendor;
  • Prohibit launch from Sherpa Designer – a checkbox that needs to be checked if launching from Sherpa Designer should be prohibited.

To activate the created License, you need to click the "Activate" button and select one of two activation types in the opened window: automatic or manual.

When choosing automatic activation, you need to click the "OK" button. Automatic activation is only possible if the Sherpa AI Server has open internet access.

When choosing manual activation, a request code appears, which needs to be passed to the vendor for confirmation of manual activation. In response to the request code, you will receive a response code, which must be entered in the corresponding field, and then click the "OK" button. The License will be activated, and the date and time in the "Expires" column will change.

Editing a Previously Created License#

To view and edit a previously created License, you need to select it from the list and click the button . After that, a form with the settings of the selected License will open, where you can make the necessary changes.

In addition to the fields filled in when creating a new License, the editing form has additional fields:

  • "GUID" (a unique identifier assigned to the License after its creation). This field cannot be edited;
  • "Expires" (the date and time when the License expires);
  • "Created" (the date and time when the License was created);
  • "Updated" (the date and time when the License was updated).
