linkThe license object

Below you will find the various attributes for the license resource, as well as the license resource's relationships. A license is an implementation of a product's policy.

linkAttributes

  • linkdata.attributes.name

    string

    The name of the license. This can be used to distinguish licenses from each other.

  • linkdata.attributes.key

    stringdefault=auto-generated

    A unique pre-determined key for the license. License keys are immutable values. Cannot be used on legacy encrypted licenses. This attribute will be automatically generated or popped from the remaining pool if left blank and the chosen scheme supports auto-generated keys. Depending on the policy's cryptographic scheme (if any), the key attribute may be required for a 'seed' dataset to embed into the final key, and the key may have other requirements that must be met regarding dataset length and formatting. The key and its signature may be base64url encoded, depending on the chosen scheme.

  • linkdata.attributes.expiry

    timestamp (iso8601)

    When the license will expire. Calculated from the license's policy, i.e. time.now + policy.duration, at the time of creation and/or renewal.

  • linkdata.attributes.status

    stringread only

    The license's status, for filtering purposes and to ascertain overall status at-a-glance. An active license is a license that has been created, validated, checked out, or checked in within the last 90 days. An expiring license is a license that is expiring within the next 3 days. One of: ACTIVE, INACTIVE, EXPIRING, EXPIRED, SUSPENDED, or BANNED.

    This is not a replacement for license validation. This is for status at-a-glance, but does not supplement or replace license validation. It has no effect on whether or not it can be used.
  • linkdata.attributes.uses

    integerdefault=0

    The license's current usage count. This can be incremented, decremented, or reset using the license's usage-related actions. Cannot exceed 2,147,483,647, which is the maximum value of a 4 byte integer.

  • linkdata.attributes.protected

    booleandefault=inherited

    Whether or not the license is protected. A protected license disallows users the ability to activate and manage machines themselves, useful in situations where you want to allow machine creation for a protected account or policy. If the license's policy is protected, they automatically inherit that value when left blank.

  • linkdata.attributes.version

    semverread only

    The license's last validated release version.

    To set the license's version, supply a scope.version or scope.checksum scope during license validation. By default, all release artifacts uploaded via our CLI will have a SHA-512 checksum.
  • linkdata.attributes.suspended

    boolean

    Whether or not the license is suspended. A suspended license will always fail validation.

  • linkdata.attributes.floating

    booleanread only

    Whether or not the license is floating. This is inherited from the policy.

  • linkdata.attributes.scheme

    stringread only

    The cryptographic encryption/signature scheme used on the license's key. Can be used to implement offline licensing by securely storing arbitrary data within a license's key.

  • linkdata.attributes.strict

    booleanread only

    Whether or not the license is strict. This is inherited from the policy.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxMachines

    integer

    The maximum number of machines the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxProcesses

    integer

    The maximum number of machine processes the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxUsers

    integer

    The maximum number of users the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxCores

    integer

    The maximum number of machine CPU cores the license can have associated with it. The count is the sum of all cores for the license's machines. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxUses

    integer

    The maximum number of uses the license is allowed to have. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis.

  • linkdata.attributes.requireHeartbeat

    booleanread only

    Whether or not machines require heartbeat pings. This is inherited from the policy.

  • linkdata.attributes.requireCheckIn

    booleanread only

    Whether or not the license will require check-in at a predefined interval to continue to pass validation i.e. if a license misses a check-in, it will be invalidated. This is inherited from the policy.

  • linkdata.attributes.lastValidated

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    When the license was last validated.

  • linkdata.attributes.lastCheckOut

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    When the license was last checked-out.

  • linkdata.attributes.lastCheckIn

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    When the license was last checked-in. This is null if the policy does not require check-ins.

  • linkdata.attributes.nextCheckIn

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    The time at which the license is required to check-in by. This is null if the policy does not require check-ins.

  • linkdata.attributes.permissions

    array<string>ent onlyThese attributes are only available for accounts on an Ent tier.

    The permissions for the license. Default and available permissions are covered here.

  • linkdata.attributes.metadata

    object<string, any>

    Object containing license metadata.

  • linkdata.attributes.created

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    When the license was created.

  • linkdata.attributes.updated

    timestamp (iso8601)read only

    When the license was last updated.

linkRelationships

  • linkdata.relationships.account

    individual

    The account that the license belongs to.

  • linkdata.relationships.environment

    individualent onlyThese relationships are only available for accounts on an Ent tier.

    The environment that the license belongs to.

    individual

    The product that the license is associated with.

  • linkdata.relationships.policy

    individual

    The policy that the license implements.

  • linkdata.relationships.group

    individualoptional

    The group the license belongs to. By default, this is inherited from the license's user, if present.

  • linkdata.relationships.owner

    individualoptional

    The user that owns the license.

  • linkdata.relationships.users

    collection

    The user that the license is associated with.

  • linkdata.relationships.machines

    collection

    The machines that the license is associated with.

linkCreate a license

Creates a new license resource.

License keys are immutable values. Once a license is created, its key cannot be changed. This also means that, for cryptographic keys, the dataset you choose to embed into a license key cannot be changed, and changes to the license object itself have no effect on the embedded dataset. Please take this into account when designing your embedded dataset, especially concerning expiration dates.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to manage the resource: either an admin, the product it belongs to, or if the license's policy is unprotected, the user it belongs to.

linkUpdate a license

Updates the specified license resource by setting the values of the parameters passed. Any parameters not provided will be left unchanged.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to manage the resource: either an admin, an environment, or the product it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or URL-safe key of the license to be updated.

linkAttributes

  • linkdata.attributes.name

    stringoptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The name of the license. This can be used to distinguish licenses from each other.

  • linkdata.attributes.expiry

    timestamp (iso8601)optionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    When the license will expire. Note: updating this attribute to an expiry in the past may not emit a license.expired webhook event.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxMachines

    integeroptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The maximum number of machines the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis. Set to null to remove an override.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxProcesses

    integeroptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The maximum number of machine processes the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis. Set to null to remove an override.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxUsers

    integeroptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The maximum number of users the license can have associated with it. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis. Set to null to remove an override.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxCores

    integeroptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The maximum number of machine CPU cores the license can have associated with it. The count is the sum of all cores for the license's machines. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis. Set to null to remove an override.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxUses

    integeroptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    The maximum number of uses the license is allowed to have. This is by default inherited from the policy, but can be overridden on a per-license basis. Set to null to remove an override.

  • linkdata.attributes.protected

    booleanoptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    Whether or not the license is protected. A protected license disallows users the ability to activate and manage machines themselves, useful in situations where you want to allow machine creation for a protected account or policy. If the license's policy is protected, they automatically inherit that value when left blank.

  • linkdata.attributes.suspended

    booleanoptionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    Whether or not the license is suspended. Note: updating this attribute directly will not emit a license.suspended webhook event.

  • linkdata.attributes.permissions

    array<string>ent onlyThese attributes are only available for accounts on an Ent tier.

    The permissions for the license. Default and available permissions are covered here.

  • linkdata.attributes.metadata

    object<string, any>optionalprotectedProtected attributes are only available for bearers with an admin, environment or product role.

    Object containing license metadata.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the updated license object.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkList all licenses

Returns a list of licenses. The licenses are returned sorted by creation date, with the most recent licenses appearing first. Resources are automatically scoped to the authenticated bearer e.g. when authenticated as a user, only licenses of that specific user will be listed.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to view the resources.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

linkQuery Parameters

  • linklimit

    integerdefault=10

    A limit on the number of licenses to be returned. Limit must be a number between 1 and 100.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?limit=25
  • linkpage

    object<string, integer>

    Object containing page size and page number. Page size must be a number between 1 and 100.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?page[size]=15&page[number]=2
  • linkexpires

    object<string, any>

    Object containing in, before, or after filters. The in filter queries licenses expiring within a duration, accepting a duration in seconds e.g. 2629746, or an ISO8601 duration e.g. 30d. The before and after filters accept an ISO8601 timestamp, querying for licenses expiring before or after the provided time, respectively. Licenses that do not expire, or those that are already expired, are excluded from results.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?expires[in]=30d
  • linkstatus

    string

    The status of the license to filter by. One of: ACTIVE, INACTIVE, EXPIRING, EXPIRED, SUSPENDED, or BANNED.

    There are 2 main status codes: ACTIVE, INACTIVE, and BANNED. Active licenses are those with activity within the past 90 days, while inactive licenses have no activity in the past 90 days. All licenses will fall under an active, inactive, or banned designation. There are sub-statuses like EXPIRING and EXPIRED which may take precedence over the ACTIVE, INACTIVE, or BANNED status, but that doesn't mean those licenses no longer have an active, inactive, or banned designation. Because of this, filtering on ACTIVE, INACTIVE, or BANNED MAY include licenses with these sub-statuses.
    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?status=ACTIVE
  • linkunassigned

    boolean

    The user-relationship status of the license to filter by. A license without an owner and user is considered unassigned.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?unassigned=true
  • linkassigned

    boolean

    The user-relationship status of the license to filter by. A license with an owner or user is considered assigned.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?assigned=true
  • linkactivated

    boolean

    The machine-relationship status of the license to filter by. A license with at least 1 machine is considered activated.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?activated=true
  • linkactivations

    object<string, integer>

    Object containing eq, gt, gte, lt, or lte filters. The filter queries licenses based on the number of activations according to the chosen comparison operator. E.g. `eq` queries for licenses with exactly that many activations, while `gte` queries for licenses with at least that many activations.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses?activations[gt]=3
  • linkproduct

    string

    The identifier (UUID) of the product to filter by.

linkLicense actions

Actions for the license resource.

linkValidate by license ID

Action to validate a license. This will check the following: if the license is suspended, if the license is expired, if the license is overdue for check-in, and if the license meets its machine requirements (if strict).

Additional scopes can also be applied, and may be required by the license's policy, e.g. a policy may set requireFingerprintScope=true, which will require that you specify a scope.fingerprint within the validation request in order to pass validation.

The scoping feature allows you to easily set up a node-locked or floating licensing model without additional logic on your end.

linkValidation codes

Below are the possible values for the meta.code key within the validation response. This can be used to better communicate failures to end-users and to handle specific failures within your application code.

Code Meaning
VALID The validated license resource or license key is valid.
SUSPENDED The validated license has been suspended.
EXPIRED The validated license is expired.
OVERDUE The validated license is overdue for check-in.
NO_MACHINE Not activated. The validated license does not meet its node-locked policy's requirement of exactly 1 associated machine.
NO_MACHINES Not activated. The validated license does not meet its floating policy's requirement of at least 1 associated machine.
TOO_MANY_MACHINES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine limit.
TOO_MANY_CORES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine core limit.
TOO_MANY_PROCESSES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine process limit.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a fingerprint scope to be provided during validation.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_MISMATCH Not activated. None or not enough of the validated license's machine relationships match the provided machine fingerprint scope.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_EMPTY A fingerprint scope was supplied but it has an empty or null value.
COMPONENTS_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a components scope to be provided during validation.
COMPONENTS_SCOPE_MISMATCH None or not enough of the validated license's machine components match the provided components scope.
USER_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a user scope to be provided during validation.
USER_SCOPE_MISMATCH The user scope does match a license owner or user, or it does not match the owner of the scoped machine (if scoped to a machine and it has an owner).
HEARTBEAT_NOT_STARTED The validated machine or fingerprint scope requires a heartbeat but one is not started.
HEARTBEAT_DEAD The validated machine or fingerprint scope belongs to a dead machine.
BANNED The user that owns the validated license has been banned.
PRODUCT_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a product scope to be provided during validation.
PRODUCT_SCOPE_MISMATCH The validated license's product relationship does not match the provided product scope.
POLICY_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a policy scope to be provided during validation.
POLICY_SCOPE_MISMATCH The validated license's policy relationship does not match the provided policy scope.
MACHINE_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a machine scope to be provided during validation.
MACHINE_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's machine relationships match the provided machine scope.
ENTITLEMENTS_MISSING The validated license's entitlement relationship is missing one or more of the entitlement scope assertions.
ENTITLEMENTS_SCOPE_EMPTY An entitlements scope was supplied but it has an empty value.
VERSION_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a version scope to be provided during validation.
VERSION_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's accessible releases match the provided version scope, i.e. the release does not exist or it is inaccessible.
CHECKSUM_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a checksum scope to be provided during validation.
CHECKSUM_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's accessible artifacts match the provided checksum scope, i.e. a matching artifact does not exist or it is inaccessible.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to validate the resource: either an admin, the product it belongs to, the license itself (via license key or a license token), or the user it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or URL-safe key of the license to be validated.

linkMeta

  • linkmeta.nonce

    integeroptional

    An arbitrary numerical nonce value that will be echoed back within the signed response body. This is useful for prevention of replay attacks.

  • linkmeta.scope

    object<string, string>optional

    Scope to validate the license against i.e. if a license's key is associated with product X, but the validation request is scoped to product Y, it will fail validation because a matching license doesn't exist for that product.

  • linkmeta.scope.product

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the product to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given product, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.policy

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the policy to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given policy, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.fingerprints

    array<string>optional

    An array of machine fingerprints to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have fingerprints which match the provided fingerprints, according to the policy's machine matching strategy, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.fingerprint

    stringoptional

    A single fingerprint of a machine to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have a fingerprint which matches the provided fingerprint, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.components

    array<string>optional

    An array of component fingerprints to validate against. If the validated license's associated machine does not have component fingerprints which match the provided fingerprints, according to the policy's component matching strategy, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.machine

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the machine to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have an ID which matches the provided ID, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.user

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) or email of the user to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given user, or if the validated machine has an owner and it is not equal to the given user, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.entitlements

    array<string>optional

    An array of entitlement codes to validate against. If the validated license's entitlements do not have codes which match the provided entitlements, the license is considered invalid.

    This is especially useful to assert that a license has a given set of table-stakes entitlements. For example, if you were to have CE and EE editions of your application, asserting that certain EE entitlements are present for a given license before booting in EE may be beneficial.
  • linkmeta.scope.checksum

    stringoptional

    The checksum of an artifact to validate against. If the validated license does not have access to an artifact with the given checksum, it is considered invalid. Providing this scope will set the license's version attribute when valid.

    In order to use the checksum scope during verification, you need to use Keygen for distribution. By default, all release artifacts uploaded via our CLI will have a SHA-512 checksum.
    This is especially useful to determine if the application has been modified by the end-user, i.e. crack-prevention. If the checksum does not match any release artifacts accessible by the license, the license validation will fail. Since a license belongs to a specific product, only artifacts for the license's product will be checked.
  • linkmeta.scope.version

    stringoptional

    The version of a release to validate against. If the validated license does not have access to a release with the given version, it is considered invalid. Providing this scope will set the license's version attribute when valid.

    In order to use the version scope during verification, you need to use Keygen for distribution.
    This is especially useful to track application usage for a license, as providing this scope will set the license's version attribute. Since a license belongs to a specific product, only releases for the license's product will be checked.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the validation result and the validated license object.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkValidate by license key

Action to validate a license key. This will look up the license by its key and check the following: if the license is suspended, if the license is expired, if the license is overdue for check-in, and if the license meets its machine requirements (if strict).

Additional scopes can also be applied, and may be required by the license's policy, e.g. a policy may set requireFingerprintScope=true, which will require that you specify a scope.fingerprint within the validation request in order to pass validation.

The scoping feature allows you to easily set up a node-locked or floating licensing model without additional logic on your end.

linkValidation codes

Below are the possible values for the meta.code key within the validation response. This can be used to better communicate failures to end-users and to handle specific failures within your application code.

Code Meaning
VALID The validated license resource or license key is valid.
NOT_FOUND The validated license resource or license key does not exist.
SUSPENDED The validated license has been suspended.
EXPIRED The validated license is expired.
OVERDUE The validated license is overdue for check-in.
NO_MACHINE Not activated. The validated license does not meet its node-locked policy's requirement of exactly 1 associated machine.
NO_MACHINES Not activated. The validated license does not meet its floating policy's requirement of at least 1 associated machine.
TOO_MANY_MACHINES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine limit.
TOO_MANY_CORES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine core limit.
TOO_MANY_PROCESSES The validated license has exceeded its policy's machine process limit.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a fingerprint scope to be provided during validation.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_MISMATCH Not activated. None or not enough of the validated license's machine relationships match the provided machine fingerprint scope.
FINGERPRINT_SCOPE_EMPTY A fingerprint scope was supplied but it has an empty or null value.
COMPONENTS_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a components scope to be provided during validation.
COMPONENTS_SCOPE_MISMATCH None or not enough of the validated license's machine components match the provided components scope.
USER_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a user scope to be provided during validation.
USER_SCOPE_MISMATCH The user scope does match a license owner or user, or it does not match the owner of the scoped machine (if scoped to a machine and it has an owner).
HEARTBEAT_NOT_STARTED The validated machine or fingerprint scope requires a heartbeat but one is not started.
HEARTBEAT_DEAD The validated machine or fingerprint scope belongs to a dead machine.
BANNED The user that owns the validated license has been banned.
PRODUCT_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a product scope to be provided during validation.
PRODUCT_SCOPE_MISMATCH The validated license's product relationship does not match the provided product scope.
POLICY_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a policy scope to be provided during validation.
POLICY_SCOPE_MISMATCH The validated license's policy relationship does not match the provided policy scope.
MACHINE_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a machine scope to be provided during validation.
MACHINE_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's machine relationships match the provided machine scope.
ENTITLEMENTS_MISSING The validated license's entitlement relationship is missing one or more of the entitlement scope assertions.
ENTITLEMENTS_SCOPE_EMPTY An entitlements scope was supplied but it has an empty value.
VERSION_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a version scope to be provided during validation.
VERSION_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's accessible releases match the provided version scope, i.e. the release does not exist or it is inaccessible.
CHECKSUM_SCOPE_REQUIRED The validated license requires a checksum scope to be provided during validation.
CHECKSUM_SCOPE_MISMATCH None of the validated license's accessible artifacts match the provided checksum scope, i.e. a matching artifact does not exist or it is inaccessible.

linkAuthentication

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

linkMeta

  • linkmeta.key

    stringrequired

    The license key to validate.

  • linkmeta.nonce

    integeroptional

    An arbitrary numerical nonce value that will be echoed back within the signed response body. This is useful for prevention of replay attacks.

  • linkmeta.scope

    object<string, string>optional

    Scope to validate the license against i.e. if a license's key is associated with product X, but the validation request is scoped to product Y, it will fail validation because a matching license doesn't exist for that product.

  • linkmeta.scope.product

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the product to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given product, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.policy

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the policy to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given policy, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.fingerprints

    array<string>optional

    An array of machine fingerprints to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have fingerprints which match the provided fingerprints, according to the policy's machine matching strategy, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.fingerprint

    stringoptional

    A single fingerprint of a machine to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have a fingerprint which matches the provided fingerprint, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.components

    array<string>optional

    An array of component fingerprints to validate against. If the validated license's associated machine does not have component fingerprints which match the provided fingerprints, according to the policy's component matching strategy, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.machine

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) of the machine to validate against. If the validated license's associated machines do not have an ID which matches the provided ID, the license is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.user

    stringoptional

    The identifier (UUID) or email of the user to validate against. If the validated license is not associated with the given user, or if the validated machine has an owner and it is not equal to the given user, it is considered invalid.

  • linkmeta.scope.entitlements

    array<string>optional

    An array of entitlement codes to validate against. If the validated license's entitlements do not have codes which match the provided entitlements, the license is considered invalid.

    This is especially useful to assert that a license has a given set of table-stakes entitlements. For example, if you were to have CE and EE editions of your application, asserting that certain EE entitlements are present for a given license before booting in EE may be beneficial.
  • linkmeta.scope.checksum

    stringoptional

    The checksum of an artifact to validate against. If the validated license does not have access to an artifact with the given checksum, it is considered invalid. Providing this scope will set the license's version attribute when valid.

    In order to use the checksum scope during verification, you need to use Keygen for distribution. By default, all release artifacts uploaded via our CLI will have a SHA-512 checksum.
    This is especially useful to determine if the application has been modified by the end-user, i.e. crack-prevention. If the checksum does not match any release artifacts accessible by the license, the license validation will fail. Since a license belongs to a specific product, only artifacts for the license's product will be checked.
  • linkmeta.scope.version

    stringoptional

    The version of a release to validate against. If the validated license does not have access to a release with the given version, it is considered invalid. Providing this scope will set the license's version attribute when valid.

    In order to use the version scope during verification, you need to use Keygen for distribution.
    This is especially useful to track application usage for a license, as providing this scope will set the license's version attribute. Since a license belongs to a specific product, only releases for the license's product will be checked.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the validation result and the validated license object.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkRenew license

Action to renew a license. Extends license expiry by the policy's duration, according to the policy's renewal basis.

Renewals do not guarantee the license's renewed expiry will land on the same day as the original expiry. Renewals take the license's current expiry datetime and add, in seconds, the policy's duration, according to the policy's renewal basis. More complex logic for subscription purposes, such as ensuring the renewed expiry lands on the same day, you will need to calculate and update the expiry attribute yourself.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to renew the resource: either an admin, the product it belongs to, or if the license's policy is unprotected, the user it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or URL-safe key of the license to renew.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the renewed license object.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkCheck-out license

Action to check-out a license. This will generate a snapshot of the license at time of checkout, encoded into a license file certificate that can be decoded and used for licensing offline and air-gapped environments. The algorithm will depend on the policy's scheme.

License files can be distributed using email or USB drives to air-gapped devices.

For instructions on verifying a license file, please see license file verification.

Need to download the license file right away? Instead of sending a POST request, you can send a GET request and our API will respond with the plaintext license file certificate, rather than a JSON response.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to check-out the resource: either an admin, the product it belongs to, the license itself (via license key or a license token), or if the license is unprotected, the user it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or URL-safe key of the license to check-out.

linkQuery Parameters

  • linkttl

    integeroptionaldefault=2629746 (1 month)

    The time-to-live (TTL) of the checked out license file, in seconds. This will be used in calculating the license file's expiry. Must be between 1 hour (3600) and 1 year (31556952), inclusive. May be set to null, but we do not recommend that.

    Setting a TTL allows changes to the license object, e.g. expiry, suspension, or metadata changes, to eventually propagate to all offline installations. No expiry means these changes are not guaranteed to propagate, since no re-checkout is required.
    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses/<id>/actions/check-out?ttl=86400
  • linkinclude

    array<string>optional

    Include relationship data in the license file. Can be any combination of: entitlements, product, policy, owner, users, environment, or group.

    Please note that the request bearer must have permission to read all included objects. That means that, by default, licenses and users cannot include the environment, product or policy objects; in addition, licenses cannot include the user object.
    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses/<id>/actions/check-out?include=entitlements,owner,group
  • linkencrypt

    booleanoptional

    Whether or not to encrypt the license file. The license file will be encrypted using AES-256-GCM, with a SHA256 digest of the license's key as the secret.

    /v1/accounts/<account>/licenses/<id>/actions/check-out?encrypt=1

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the license file object.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkIncrement license usage

Action to increment a license's uses attribute in accordance with its policy's maxUses attribute. When the policy's maxUses limit is exceeded, the increment attempt will fail. When the policy's maxUses is set to null, there is no limit on usage.

Usage should not be used to track activations. Instead, you should use proper machine activation. Implementing usage for this purpose can lead to duplicate activations, the inability to deactivate, and in general, it goes against the recommended validation-based activation flow we offer. We do not recommend it.
The uses attribute cannot be incremented more than the maximum value of a 4 byte integer, 2,147,483,647. If you need to store larger values, you may need to store usage information in your own datastore. Please reach out if you have any questions.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to increment the resource's usage: either an admin, the product it belongs to, the license itself (via license key or a license token), or if the license is unprotected, the user it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or URL-safe key of the license to increment usage for.

linkMeta

  • linkmeta.increment

    integeroptionaldefault=1

    The amount to increment the license's usage by.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the incremented uses count within the license object. A 422 Unprocessable Entity will be returned in the case where the policy's maxUses count has been exceeded.

Though rare, a 409 Conflict will be returned in the case where a previous increment operation has not yet completed. This is likely due to you firing off too many increment requests in parallel. Increase the time between requests or increment in larger batches by utilizing the meta.increment parameter.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.

linkLicense relationships

Relationship endpoints for the license resource.

linkGenerate a license token

Create a license token for a license. A license token has permission to activate and deactivate machines for the given license, among other things.

An alternative to Token Authentication is License Authentication. Typically, we recommend using License Authentication where possible, as it very much simplifies an integration.

A typical machine activation flow using license tokens will require you to deliver the license key, as well as the license token to your customer (e.g. via email). In this scenario, you would generate a license token after creating a license for them, all of which would likely be done after purchase.

Providing the customer with both the license token and the license key will allow them to validate their license and activate/deactivate machines without having to sign up for a user profile, since the machine-related endpoints require API authentication.

Another solution would be to deliver only the license token to your customer, and use the license token to request license information using the /me API endpoint. This is an easy way to only deliver one value to your customer, while allowing your app to retrieve enough information to perform any necessary API requests.

If this all seems complex, it's because it is. We created license key authentication to simplify client-side integrations, and we recommend License Authentication for the majority of client-side integrations.

linkAuthentication

  • linkBearer

    required

    An authentication token with privileges to create tokens for the resource: either an admin, an environment, or the product it belongs to.

linkURL Parameters

  • link<account>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or slug of your Keygen account.

  • link<id>

    stringrequired

    The identifier (UUID) or key of the license the token is for.

linkAttributes

  • linkdata.attributes.name

    stringoptional

    An optional name for the token. This can be used to easily identify tokens at a glance.

  • linkdata.attributes.expiry

    timestamp (iso8601)optional

    The timestamp for when the token expires. Requests using an expired token will be rejected.

  • linkdata.attributes.permissions

    array<string>default=["*"]ent onlyThese attributes are only available for accounts on an Ent tier.

    The permissions for the token. Available permissions, dependent on the bearer, are covered here. By default, it is set to a wildcard `*`, which inherits all permissions from the token bearer.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxActivations

    integeroptional

    The maximum number of machine activations the token is allowed to perform. If this is null, the token will not have an activation limit.

  • linkdata.attributes.maxDeactivations

    integeroptional

    The maximum number of machine deactivations the token is allowed to perform. If this is null, the token will not have a deactivation limit.

linkReturns

A 200 OK response will be returned along with the new license token.

Upon error, an errors object will be returned along with an HTTP status code indicating the type of error. When an error occurs, the data property will not be included.
