Offline Activations
Suppose your user doesn't have access to an internet connection or may not have in near future. For such cases you can provide your users with an offline activation response file which can be used to activate the license offline. Offline activation process has following three steps:
To allow your users to generate offline activation request file, after setting the license key, use following LexActivator API function:
SetLicenseKey("PASTE_LICENCE_KEY");GenerateOfflineActivationRequest();
Now, after getting the offline activation request file from user, go to activations page of the license and click the OFFLINE ACTIVATION button. You will be presented with a form, paste the contents of offline activation request file, set the validity for the response file and click ACTIVATE button. If request is valid then offline activation response file will start downloading.
Your customers can also log into the customer portal, to download the offline activation response file by themselves, saving you a considerable amount of time on product support.
To allow your users to activate using the generated offline activation response file use following LexActivator API function:
ActivateLicenseOffline();
In case user formats the PC, the generated offline activation response can be reused to activate your app, till the response validity expires.
