Stopgap License Keys

We aim to provide customers with self-service options through MyInedo for situations when a license key hasn't been renewed in time. Follow the steps below to generate a (temporary) stopgap license key and ensure your software service is uninterrupted.

What is a Stopgap License?

Stopgap license keys allow your team to continue working uninterrupted without a lapse in features/services.

A stopgap license key may be necessary if:

• Your license is expiring before your accounts payable team is able to create a PO.
• Your renewal contact left the company and their role wasn't updated.
• License expiry emails went unnoticed.

Regardless of the reason, generating/requesting a stopgap license key is straightforward and quick.

If organizations are using enterprise functionality unavailable in the trail edition (i.e. ProGet's feed replication), or require more/servers (BuildMaster, Otter), this functionality can still be accessed with a self-generated trial stopgap license key.

Self-Generated Stopgap License Key (Trial)

A self-generated stopgap license key should be created when your organization absolutely cannot have their license keys expire and cannot wait for customer support. This process takes under 10 minutes.

Go to your MyInedo portal and click on "Request Trial/Free License." There will be 2 options presented to you for every product: free and trial.

Select the trial edition to get a key that will last 30 days; unlike the Free Edition, a Trial Key will have the standard paid features available.

Then, enter and activate your license key to restore functionality immediately. Note that your Inedo product will display a banner stating that it is only meant for trial purposes; this is merely a cosmetic reminder and your Inedo product will function as a normal license.
