Set-UDLicense
is used to install a Universal Dashboard license. The -License
parameter expects the contents of a license file. To install a license, you the following command line.
Set-UDLicense -License (Get-Content .\license.txt -Raw)
If you set the %UDLICENSE%
environment variable, UD will load the license from it. This is good for cloud-based deployments.
$Env:UDLICENSE = (Get-Content .\license.txt -Raw)
One of the places that UD will attempt to load a license is from the ApplicationData folder. This folder is different depending on the operating system you are running. You will have to create the following folder and file structure. The contents of license.lic
should be the license contents you received after purchase.
WIN: C:\Users\adam\AppData\Roaming\UniversalDashboard/license.lic
LIN: /home/adam/.config/UniversalDashboard/license.lic
OSX: /Users/adam/.config/UniversalDashboard/license.lic
Another place that UD looks for a license during startup is within the binary folder for UD. If you are running Windows PowerShell, this will be the /UniveraslDashboard/net472
folder. If you are running PowerShell Core, this will be the /UniversalDashboard/netstandard2.0
folder. The file should be named license.lic
and include the contents of the license you received after purchase.
