After you successfully integrate your application with Zentitle and demonstrate basic license activation / deactivation, you may want to implement more advanced licensing functionality.
Below is a “cookbook” of licensing models & capabilities that you can use to build your specific use case. These articles explain how to both configure settings in Zentitle and implement the code for each use case. For explanations of these licensing models/capabilities, see popular licensing models and capabilities.
Cookbook of popular licensing models:
- Trials and Basic License Activation / Deactivation for Perpetual, Subscription, and Expiry Date licensing - this basic functionality is covered by the integration guide
- Concurrent licensing - check out/return seats of a license
- Custom fields licensing (Total Application Agility) - custom parameters
- Features activation / deactivation
- Floating Features - check out/return seats of a specific feature
- Consumption Tokens - metered usage, i.e. for pay-per-use models
