Manage product trials
You can create and manage your product trials using the 10Duke Scale UI console, the 10Duke Scale License Management API, and 10Duke Scale License Checkout API.
You can configure product trials for your preconfigured products. During the configuration, you define the product configuration to use, duration of the trial, validity of the trial offer, and if needed, the allowed application versions.
Product trials are activated using an activation code. The code is generated when creating a new product trial. You can deliver the activation code to your end customers for example as follows:
-
Online on your website or in an email.
-
Embedded into your application.
-
Embedded into your application packaging.
To ensure trial limits are respected, 10Duke Scale records the hardware ID of the device. A single trial activation code can only be used once per device.
Note: Product trials are only applicable to seat-based licenses.
