Admin path

The portal route to a working license — no code. You’ll reach the same result as the API quickstart: a published entitlement a customer can activate.

  1. Sign in to the Provision Portal.
  2. Create a product — under Products, give it a name, code and version.
  3. Add features — on the product’s Features tab, add the capabilities you license (each gets a dotted code, e.g. api-calls.total).
  4. (Optional) Add a usage plan — on the Usage Plans tab, define tiers such as Basic / Pro with their limits.
  5. Create an entitlement — under Entitlements, pick the customer and attach the product and a plan.
  6. Publish it — set the entitlement to Published so it can be activated.
  7. Issue an activation code — on the entitlement’s Activation Codes tab, generate a code and send it to the customer.
  8. Watch it work — activations, sessions and usage show up on the Dashboard and the entitlement’s Usage tab.

Your catalog and the codes customers redeem:

The Products page in the Provision Portal

Products — each carries a code, version and lifecycle status.

The Activation Codes page in the Provision Portal

Activation Codes — generate one on an entitlement and send it to the customer to redeem.

That’s the whole loop. Task-by-task guides live under Using the Portal.
