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.
A Pro license for one of ReadyAPI tools lets you use all the features of this tool (including the Pro features), as well as the basic features of the other tools.
If you need the Pro features of the other tools, you need to purchase a Pro license for these tools. In this case, you will append "new" licenses to an "existing" license.
This topic explains how to activate "additional" commercial licenses. For information on activating additional trial licenses, see Trial License Activation.
Since ReadyAPI 1.4, you can combine fixed and floating licenses on one computer. For example, you can use a floating license for the ReadyAPI Test but have a fixed ReadyAPI Virtualization license.
Activation of an additional license does not differ from activation of new licenses.
In case of an error, you will see a message explaining the problem. See Troubleshooting for information on typical issues and possible solutions.
If you are unable to solve the problem, contact our Support Team. We will be glad to help you.
