License Activation and Management

How to activate and manage your Asset Transformer Studio license
Read time 2 minutesLast updated 24 days ago
The license, required to run Asset Transformer Studio, must be activated from the License Manager.
The license activation procedure is different whether a floating or a node-locked license is used:

Floating License

To use a floating license, a FlexLM license server is required. See here for the procedure.

Node-locked License

Depending on your internet connection, please use either of the following activation modes:
  • Online mode: your computer is connected to the Internet.
  • Offline mode: your computer is not connected to the Internet (for example your company blocks internet connection on your computer).
Important
  • The activation procedure is the same for a trial license and a purchased license.
  • You can bind a node-locked license to only one computer (each computer has a unique ID). Meaning you cannot use the same license on multiple computers, at the same time.
  • You can release this license once to use it on another computer: read more.
