Important Notice for ReadyAPI Customers
ReadyAPI has fully transitioned to the ID-based SmartBear License Management (SLM) system. We are now moving into the final phase of deprecation of file-based licenses. Customers still using file-based licensing need to plan for migration to SLM before September 30, 2025.
If you are still in the process of migrating or have yet to start, contact your Account Manager or SmartBear representative today. Our teams are ready to assist with smooth transition strategies. For additional support, please log a request with our Customer Care Team, who are standing by to help.
For further information and timelines, please refer to this page.
You use a floating license to run ReadyAPI on multiple computers.
To use floating licenses, you need to install Floating License Server. The following topics describe how to install and configure the server and how to add a ReadyAPI floating license to the server.
License Server - System Requirements
Configure License Server 5.x (ReadyAPI 3.3.1 or later)
