This page is related to file-based licenses — a legacy license type used in ReadyAPI 3.44.1. This license type will be sunsetted from October 2023. For information on the current ID-based license type, see SmartBear ID-based Licenses.
To control floating licenses, ReadyAPI uses Protection! Licensing Server. Topics of this section describe how to install and configure it.
Starting from version 3.3.1, ReadyAPI uses Protection! Licensing Server version 5. Earlier ReadyAPI versions use Protection! Licensing Server version 4. To learn how to update your License server, see Upgrade License Server to 5.x.
