A license is a key that authorizes access to Lerian features or services under specific contractual conditions, typically aligned with billing cycles (e.g., monthly, annual). This mechanism is similar to how software products like Microsoft Office or GitHub Enterprise manage access through activation keys.
In Lerian's ecosystem, licenses play a critical role in:
- Ensuring customers are in good standing before accessing paid features, such as plugins or enterprise features.
- Managing which features are available per client.
- Enabling Lerian to scale support and sales operations securely and efficiently.
In short, only clients with valid licenses — as defined in their contracts — can access specific software components.
ImportantA valid license must be associated with the organization making the request. Otherwise, access will be denied.
