Automated App License Templates
Introduction
AppsAnywhere provides a range of ready-to-deploy Cloudpaged applications, which can be automatically licensed by AppsAnywhere upon launch.
License information is configured within AppsAnywhere using corresponding license templates, which define the required key / value pairs for software license activation.
This page provides details of the available apps and templates and the correct license format.
See Automated App Licensing for details of how to apply app licenses in AppsAnywhere.
Automated App Licensing is available to all customers using AppsAnywhere 2.11 or above
The feature must be enabled by AppsAnywhere Support before use
Compatible applications can be downloaded from the AppsAnywhere Packaging Service.
Only the applications provided by AppsAnywhere via the templates below are compatible
It is not possible for customers to create their own templates for applications that are not already included
Applications are only updated periodically
Only the latest versions available at the time will be converted for Automated App Licensing
Customizations are requested as Bespoke Requests
