Applying License Keys for Profound UI

Applying License Keys for Profound UI

Overview

This documentation will take you through the steps needed to apply your license key to your Profound UI instance. There are two different ways that you can apply your key:

  1. The License Key page via the web;

  2. Updating the PUIKEY data area via green screen;

License Key Page

You can apply the license key via the web by visiting the following page:

http://server_name:port/profoundui/key

The “server_name” portion should be changed to your own server name or IP address and the “port” portion should be changed to the port number that Profound UI is installed on. For example, if your server IP address was 127.0.0.1 and your Profound UI instance was installed on port 8080, your URL would look like this:  http://127.0.0.1:8080/profoundui/key.

Visiting this URL will show the following page:

You can do either of the following options:

  1. Copy and paste the key into the text area under “Paste License Key”;

  2. Upload the profoundui.key file from your local computer using the “Choose File” and “Upload Key” options (if you were sent a file that contains your new key);

After selecting “Apply Key”, you can refresh the page to verify that the new key has been applied.

Green Screen

If you want to apply your new key using green screen, Profound UI stores the key in the following data area: QGPL/PUIKEY. You will need to update this data area with your new key.

You may need to run the command CALL QCMD before updating the data area in order to add more lines to the command line. Then, you should be able to run the CHGDTAARA command to update the key.
