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.
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.
License compatibility
Since ReadyAPI 1.4, you can combine fixed and floating licenses on one computer. For example, you can use a floating license for ReadyAPI Test, but have a fixed ReadyAPI Virtualization license.
Activation procedure
Activation of an additional license does not differ from activation of new licenses.
