Foresight Mobile Platform checks license during mobile platform server work.
A license is an activation code that determines available product use options during a specific licensing period. Each license is generated according to installation identifier and is sent as a *.prm file. The license file is loaded within one installation. The same license file cannot be transferred between several installations.
The license has restrictions on:
The number of mobile platform users.
The total number of mobile devices connected to mobile platform.
The number of mobile devices for a specific user. The user can link several mobile devices to one account if the number of user devices does not exceed the number of devices registered in the license. If it is required to replace the device linked to user account, use the All API Users subsection
Restrictions are determined by a license agreement. If required, a license can be bought that takes into account the number if users and mobile devices.
To get a new license, contact technical support by sending a request to support@fsight.ru or technical support services, which are available after registration at the website.
A license can be managed in the Licenses subsection:
